Fatty Bear

My story of being a consumer of digital media is a brief one. Aside from having a limited amount of time due to work, school, and family, I was born well before the arrival of the internet and cell phone. Growing up without easy access to the world and the ability to seek any type of information, watch any type of show, or read any type of book right at the touch of my fingertips may seem odd now; however, it was my way of life for almost thirty years. Even now, at age 54, I am amazed at how much

crowded theme parks and restaurant chains are non-existent? Or where wildlife outnumbers people? If answered 'yes' to any of these then the Great Bear Rainforest would be a vacation dream come true. From fishing to sightseeing to kayaking to hiking to eating local cuisine, this destination offers it all for those seeking remote destinations. The Great Bear Rainforest is located in British Columbia, Canada. It is remote yet easy to access by car, plane, or ferry from Vancouver. It is a 12- 14 hour

Surviving through harsh, -16° celsius winters, Polar bears (Ursus Maritimus) have managed to survive the arctic’s freezing conditions year after year. Polar bears are only found in the northern hemisphere, and are an extremely evolved species that have very carefully adapted to the environment (Moskowitz, 2010). They are fast enough to catch caribou, but spend most of their time prowling the ice at a more leisurely pace (Mertz, 2004). They must walk slowly because they typically have problems with

that depend on them. Polar bears have an especially focused diet, and seals are their prefered prey. Interestingly, the milk produced by polar bear mothers “is more similar to that of pinnipeds (seals) than it is to milk of most terrestrial mammals” (Amstrup, 599). Like polar bears, several species of seal depend on a reliable presence of sea ice in order to breed (Derocher 2004, p. 168). A dwindling seal population will almost certainly affect polar bears. Polar bears are unique from their omnivorous

groups of female polar bears (females with cubs of the year and females without cubs) and within a group of males. PCB is an industrial organochlorine chemical by-product which has toxic effects. Since PCB is volatile it is deposited in the polar regions. PCB negatively impacts brain development due to their impact on the thyroid system. It also causes menstrual dysfunction, anovulation, and miscarriage. The polar bear feeds on the seals which contain OCs in their fatty tissues so the PCB congeners

Since earth was created, there has been a natural phenomenon of species across the globe appearing and disappearing. However, in the past century, many species of animals have been disappearing at an alarming rate. Mainly, this rapidly occurring issue is caused by humans. Humans that contribute to the harmful actions that cause side effects such a pollution, deforestation, habitat loss and poaching. The natural rate of extinction pales in comparison to the extinction rate caused by all of these.

Timothy Treadwell demonstrated towards human nature and how he demonstrates human nature through himself. Timothy Treadwell spent thirteen long summers in Alaskan Peninsula. He went to go portray his love and protection to the wild life and grizzly bears, which lead him to his miserable death. Herzog creates a sequence of scenes, comments, and interviews from people who is well connected directly or indirectly with Treadwell. His purpose of directing the Grizzly Man documentary through Treadwell’s

forced to live out their lives in zoos in unhealthy, degrading, and devastating ways. The first exhibit I encountered was the black bears. Their thick, glistening fur was reflecting the light on and off as they paced the entire patch of land. Walking back and forth, the bears footprints could be seen in the dirt as they slowly wove a path into the land. One bear was just lying around in the blistering sun barely moving. No trees, no bushes, and no pools of water to allow the animals to cool down

Bear Hunting in New Jersey The head of the New Jersey Environmental Protection Agency has resumed the black bear hunts that had been paused for five years due to over hunting. In this time, the population of black bears has risen once again to a safe level for hunting, and the republican controlled government has allowed hunters to resume their hunting. Some wildlife activists see the hunts as unnecessary and cruel, and wish to defend the bears. This belief is opposed by the hunting organizations
