The Siberian Lynx (Lynx lynx wrangeli) is a subspecies of the Eurasian lynx. They inhabit Siberia east of the Yenisei River and in other parts of Russia. The climate is frequently very cold. Eurasian lynxes are the largest of all lynxes. Males weigh upwards of 65 lbs. (about 30 kg); have a height of 30 in. (75 cm) at the shoulder, and a length of 50 in. (130 cm). The Siberian subspecies gets particularly big with males reaching as much as 90 lbs. Their paws are wide, enabling them to walk across

“Run” Anna whispered, her voice barely audible as she pressed a hand to her chest. “RUN” She yelled this time, launching herself into a full sprint towards the cave system that the others had already taken cover in. A light humming sound could be heard from not too far away, a sound they knew far too well. “Uncle Mike....” Phoenix’s voice trailed off. “What is that?” Allen asked looking around curiously “I can’t see anything” Before they knew it Mike was on Anna’s tail, dragging Phoenix and Allen

Chaparral biomes are located in small isolated areas throughout most continents, according to Kids do Ecology. These locations are usually by a large body of water such as the oceans. In general, Chaparrals do not cover vast amounts of land area. One Chaparral location example mentioned by Kids do Ecology, is the United States, in Santa Barbra, California. There are also chaparrals around the Mediterranean Sea, Southwest North America, the middle of Chile, Southern Australia and Southwest Africa

the decline of a number of species of native animals and they also prey on newborn lambs. In the past, methods have been used to reduce fox numbers in the wild in the hopes to achieve a fox free country, however those techniques such as employing bounty hunters, were rarely effective. Various methods such as hunting seem to have little impact on European Red Fox numbers and thus won't help to cure the damage that the invasive species caused. High priority prevention, such as on islands, which are

There was once 3 european minks that lived in a beautiful forest in Europe. Their names were Alex, Roy, and Mel. They lived happily together and would never be separated. One day while playing some games a wolf appeared in their home. The wolf said, “oh lovely minks! I have no place to go, would you mind if I could stay here?” The three minks hesitated for a moment but then said Alex, “of course Mr.Wolf, we would gladly let you stay!” After that the wolf joined them in all the games they played,

Gestalt Goldberg The sum of the parts does not always equal the whole, especially in poetry. In the anthology On the Blossoming, Lea Goldberg explores the concept of desire. On the surface, this idea seems well analyzed and discussed. However, by carefully tracking words, symbols, and images across the poems “Dialogue”, “Songs of the Foxes”, and “Clear Autumn,” Goldberg slyly elucidates the ephemeral nature of desire, the dichotomy between actions and emotions, and all the while exposes an over-arching

A Lion is a King and a Fox is the Thief “Since, then, a prince must know how to use well the nature of the beast, he should choose from among the beasts the fox and the lion; for the lion cannot defend itself from traps, while the fox cannot protect itself from the wolves. It is therefore necessary to be a fox, in order to recognize the traps, and a lion, in order to frighten the wolves’ (Machiavelli 60).” When must the Prince be the lion and when must he be the fox? In The Prince written by Machiavelli

The dog, also know as “man’s best friend” or more scientifically, Cannis lupus familiaris, has been just that for 130,000 years. The dog is a descendant of the gray wolf, who lives in a much different habitat and leads a much different lifestyle than our domestic dogs. The anatomy and physiology of the dog can vary greatly among its different breeds but generally speaking the dog anatomy and physiology follow similar blueprints no matter what. To begin, the dog transitioned from wolf to domestic

We all learn from one another and wolves, like dogs, can learn from us as well. Dogs are more skillful than great apes at a number of tasks in which they must read human communicative signals like indicating the location of hidden food. However, the main objective of these studies was to determine whether the skills that dog have today have arisen from the hundreds of years of domestication and co-evolution with humans, or if these were already in their genes from their wolf ancestors (Bates 2013)

ground. We immediately decided to purchase a dog right there; the journey had started. On Kijiji, we noticed that a breeder in a farm town two hours away from Kitchener was selling a Pomeranian. This puppy had an orange fur that made him resemble a fox, small pointy ears, and a face that would make your heart melt. We didn’t need much convincing after we saw the picture, so we loaded our car and made our Keady, Ontario. The whole road trip consisted of dialogue on how excited we were for our new puppy
