Humans have caused another extinction, one that could possibly take us down in the process, species are exponentially going extinct because of habitat loss, species exportation, and invasive species bullying native species. On the other hand, scientists are trying to safe guard native species, keep animals in captivity whether it be for the animals well-being or for research, and widespread invasion. In this essay I will be comparing and contrasting “What Everglades Pythons and Other Invasive Species

Migratory Behavior and Prey Specificity of Killer Whales Abstract: Killer whales are cosmopolitan and considered to be a single species that is distributed across the entire ocean. Though it has long been generally known that there are residential killer whales which primarily feed on fish, transient killer whales which feed on mammals, and the lesser encountered offshore killer whales, they actually have further diverse characteristics and are labeled as “types.” Though there are features of appearances

Unlike the yeti, though just as elusive, the yeti crab is no creature of fable. The yeti crab, also known as Kiwa hirsuta, has introduced not only a new species of crustaceans, but an entirely new and unique genus as well. The genus Kiwa was chosen after the Polynesian goddess of shellfish, and the species name hirsuta represents the crab’s hairy, yeti-like arms. Determined to be a decapod, it is related to crabs, lobster, and shrimp. The creature is differentiated from these by its lack of eyes

had an interest in human-wildlife interactions, and as a keen traveller, I love to learn about effective ecotourism. When researching in Cancun, and recently travelling in the Philippines, I have noticed wildlife tours, such as swimming with whale sharks are lacking control of tourist numbers and amount of interaction, the type of issues that would need to be addressed by the Department of Parks and Wildlife. I think my travel experience would be a useful asset to the research team. As you can see

The boys noticed there was a contest taking place at the festival. The rules of the contest were that you had to go in the river and catch one of the three biggest fish you could find. A rainbow trout, black bass, or a Perciformes. Whoever won the contest would earn a year's supply of rice for their family. The boys really wanted to win the rice. They headed to

1. Neil Shubin, author of Your Inner Fish, and his colleagues travel to Ellesmere Island to look for and study the shift from fish living in water to creatures living on land (4). Fossils from 360 million years ago include amphibians and reptiles. Fossils 385 million years old, only fish are found. Because of this, Shubin and his colleagues look at the time in the middle of this, 375 million years ago (10). In 2004, they give it another try, after failed previous tries (21). What gradually emerges
