China is one of the world's oldest continuous civilizations, and has most complex cultures. China leads the world in swine production, the total number of hogs reaching about 454.4 million at the beginning of 2001 (55% of the world's total), as compared with 89.8 million in 1952. The number of sheep expanded from 36.9 million in 1952 to nearly 133.2 million in 2001. Pig raising, often pursued as a private sideline by peasants, is the fastest-growing sector of the livestock industry, and hogs and pork products are becoming valuable export earners. In 2001, China produced 65.3 million tons of meat, ranking first in the world with 27% of the total. Some 12.8 million tons consisted of poultry. Pork production in 2001 amounted to 42.9 million tons (first in the world), equivalent to 40% of global production.

...In the Jewish culture, one who was a shepherd by profession was looked down upon. Shepherds spent their days around animals, spent their nights outdoors guarding the same animals, and were found only in the company of fellow shepherds. There was nothing special about one who tended and kept sheep. But God saw something special in these lowly men. Looking into the lives of many great men and women in the Bible used significantly by God, you shall find that at least at one time they were shepherds—Rachel, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, and David. The first man whose sacrifice is recorded to have pleased God was a shepherd: Abel. Unlike Cain, Abel gave God a sacrifice of his first. As we have already seen, the sacrifice of the first of one’s fruits signified total dedication of all the fruits to God, from whom all good things come. Abel honored God. In response to God’s question after he had killed his brother, “Where is your brother Abel?” Cain mocked his brother’s profession by answering, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”, as if to say, “Am I my brother’s shepherd?” Shepherds were looked down upon. This could also have been another reason Cain’s jealousy burned against his brother. A mere herdsman, a shepherd, was looked on with favor by God, instead of him. 147 Brenda Siara Jesse, David’s father, when asked by Samuel the prophet to present to him the sons in his household, brought all except for David. When Samuel found not, amongst those presented, the king whom...

...Yellowstone in Process Adrienne Rawlins-Wilson SCI/256 September 9, 2013 Yellowstone in Process Yellowstone is the perfect ecosystem to be used as an example of the assorted biogeochemical systems that govern life. Comprised of an intricate and fluid set of interlocking biogeochemical systems, Yellowstone Park is one of the most vibrant and dynamic regions of the Earth. Naturally occurring fire must be mentioned along with these basic systems. The thermodynamic park has strange and wonderful powers of recovery and rejuvenation. With more than 10,000 hydrothermal features active in assisting life for thousands of plant and animal species, Yellowstone is one of the few remaining unaltered natural ecosystems left in Earth’s temperate zones (National Park Service", 2013). The national park is home to many species of microscopic life perfectly evolved to cope with the high temperatures of the heated mineral-laden water that bubbles and rushes to the surface. Coexisting alongside are hundreds of other easily recognized species. The carbon, phosphorus, and nitrogen cycles are each apparent and active in the park. Carbon is part of every living thing, and cycles through living organisms, air, water, and will fixate in the ground; coal is carbon stored in a solid mineral state. Carbon is stored in several places; it is found in the atmosphere, the biosphere, and the oceans in both living (fish and plants) and non-living (dissolved carbon and carcasses) distributions...

...When you see an animal in their sanctuary, do you see misery or happiness? Both points of view determine how you see zoos inside and out the barrier between you and the animals, like in the two texts. In “Zoos: Myth and Reality” by Rob Laidlaw and “Zoos Connect us to the Natural World” by Michael Hutchins, both authors develop different/similar claims about their viewpoint on costs and benefits of zoos. The authors use evidence, reasoning, and word choice to prove their claim. They based on what perspective they have. These different viewpoints focus on in what way zoos are advancing to “improve” the experience for both the animals and us. In “Zoos Myth and Reality” the author discourages how zoos claim to improve on the maintenance of animals,...

...capturing animals is lack of freedom. The animals should be in the place where they belong. An animals staying in the cage seem kind of tortured. Of course, they are tortured and for sure, it is hard time for animals to stay in the cage for the rest of their lives. “When we lose the right to be different, we lose the privilege to be free” (Hughes).Wild animals are supposed to live wildlife, supposed to hunt and survive as they live their own typical life. Although animals in the zoo will be released by any opportunities however they will never be able to survive in wildlife. This is due to the lack of experience in wildlife and they wont be easily adapted to the new environment. Is not only freedom an animal, who being captive in a zoo, their chance for survival is no longer their control. Many people thinking Some schools organize school trips to the zoo, for educational purposes. Many people say that zoos are indeed educational. However in reality people spend only few minutes of their time to look at one animal, therefore there is nothing educational about. It is even easier to watch the same thing on TV or go online. Although some people claim that there is a quite natural environment in the zoo there is nothing natural about it. For instance, water animals don’t have the required amount of water, or birds cannot fly as much distance that they actually need. Some animals require privacy and seclusion, but this definitely is not happening in the zoo. As a result animals end up...

Instead, develop a research question that lends itself to further exploration and debate—a question for which you genuinely want to know the answer. Try to pick a research question that is neither too broad, which covers too much, or too narrow, which covers too little. It should be broad enough to be discussed in a short research paper. |What is your general topic or area of interest? |Animal is the topic of interest that I have chosen. | |What is it about your general topic of interest that interests |The reason I chose animals as my topic of interest is because I | |you? |have always been so passionate about animals.

...Extinction is a natural selection process. Should humans strive to preserve a representative sample of all biomes or aquatic zones? Why should humans be concerned with the extinction rate? at least 150 words in length. Support your claims with at least two references to support of your position. Cite your sources. “Many anthropologists postulate that as Paleolithic people migrated to new lands with advanced hunting technologies, they hunted existing large animals to extinction, creating the first human-caused environmental catastrophe.” (Turk, J., & Bensel, T.2011) Human’s area species. We directly depend on thousands of other species for our survival, and each of them depends on thousands of others, and each of them depends on thousands of others, and so on. An extinction "event" occurs when the collapse of one species leads to the collapse of others. Evidence suggests that several "mass extinction events" have happened in the past that wiped out half or more of all of the species living at the time. We may be witnessing the start of another mass extinction right now. We don't fully understand the "web of life" upon which we depend for our existence. What would you do, if you depended on something you didn't understand to keep you alive, and one day, you noticed that it was changing into something else? Would you try to stop it from changing? or would you just wait to see what happens next? Extinction is a natural selection process. However anthropogenic impact has...

...wholesomeness. Halal is all about the place and the process used for slaughtering the animals and the condition those animals are kept in. Halal is now being recognized all over the world not only by the Muslims but also the Non-Muslims community. An example of how other countries around the world are adapting to Halal food is shown in Moscow, Russia. In Moscow the sales were $45 in 2004 and then increased to $70 million in 2006 and then to $100 million in 2008 (Muhammad, 2007). The growth is due to consumer’s perception of human animal treatment concerns. Russians purchased Halal food because they thought the products were fresh, safe and infection free and also believed that the Muslims won’t cheat them. In the Philippines the population looks for the Halal logo on the products so that they can purchase them easily. Malaysia consists of 3 different races which are the Malaya, Chinese, and Indians. 62% of the Malays are Muslim, 24% Chinese are either Buddhist or Traditional Chinese religions and 8% are Indians who follow Hinduism (department of statistics Malaysia, 2011). The Chinese and Indians don’t really pay attention whether the food is Halal or not. They don’t really know the benefits of the Halal food and they’re not aware of the fact that the products have to go through an inspection before they are allowed to be used. More Non-Muslims would prefer Halal food if they found out about health issues, animal rights and safety, environment, social justice and welfare....

...the second greatest cause of ill health globally by 2020. It is also predicted that billion* dollars is the amount of money the animal film industry will make in year*. What do these two have in common? Studies have shown that people become happier participating in nature and animal conservation activities. In Chris Palmer “Shooting in the Wild: An insiders Account Of Making Movies In The Animal Kingdom” Palmer reveals the business of creating a wildlife film to convey a conservation message and some of the darker tactics used in deceiving the public to emotionally be inclined to take action. This study will take a close look at how two documentaries “Arctic Tale” and “Grizzly Man” relate to conveying a message to save the animals and how it contributes to depression in humans and how they differ between their methods of practice. Wildlife documentaries and TV programs in America have increasingly become more sensationalized then ever before in human history. As people become more disconnected with nature and animals, more and more people are becoming depressed through their hectic lives and often yearn to be reconnected to the natural world again. However, the bond between humans and the wild are connected through the lens of a camera. As Chris Palmer has mentioned “During primetime in September 2008, more than 30 million viewers tuned in to Animal Planet, which is now seen in 94 million households in the United States and more than 220 million internationally.”(Palmer. Pg 5)...

...Discuss a solution to the problem of protecting endangered species of flora and fauna Florae purify our environment by performing photosynthesis, and faunae create diversity of our ecosystem. Altogether, they play a significant role in providing us a safe and sound place to live. Unfortunately, in recent years, many endangered species of plants and wildlife are gradually becoming extinct. Without these plants and wildlife, we global citizens will eventually perish. How can we help protect these precious flora and fauna? The solution to the problem lies in governments' measures of building greenhouse and imposing heavy fines for illegal hunting. We always take the diversity of flora and fauna for granted and never appreciate this gift mother nature offers. However, we must immediately change our indifferent attitude towards the conservation of flora and fauna to a positive, responsible one. Governments must allocate budgets on building greenhouses and training botanists, so the endangered species of plants will receive extra care. For instance, the seed conservation research centre established by a group of English botanists work on preserving any kind of seeds and duplicate their genes, so any kind of plants on earth will not be facing extinction. Besides following the steps of these English botanists, governments must also raise the public's awareness of preservation of endangered plants. For example, governments should design advertisements that encourage public...

...This single criteria helps placing the animal species in one of the two groups, the vertebrates and the invertebrates animals. So before a scientist or a zoologist begins to learn about the animal, he or she first decides, whether it comes under vertebrates or invertebrates animals. We will learn about the vertebrates and invertebrates differences by individually understanding the characteristics of each group. Difference Between Vertebrates and Invertebrates The following information on animals will help you understand the differences between each group. Which Animals are Known as Invertebrates? Invertebrates are animals that belong to a large animal group. These animals do not belong to a single sub-phylum like the vertebrates. The invertebrates are those animals without a backbone. Invertebrates are multicellular organisms and mostly form a colony of individual cell that function as one. All the cells in the colony have a particular function. They have no cell walls and many have tissues, except the sponges. Most of the invertebrates produce sexually. Most of the invertebrates can move except the adult sponges. There are many invertebrates that follow symmetrical organization. This means one can draw a line down the middle of the animal and the two sides will be similar like mirror images. Invertebrates are heterotrophs that feed on plants and animals. The invertebrates include the following animals: Phylum Porifera - Sponges Phylum Cnidaria - Jellyfish, hydras...

...For example near large water sources, such as, rivers, streams, and springs in the woods. They are unable to be self-sufficient due to being unable to produce their own food independently with photosynthesis. They must absorb nutrients vital to sustain themselves that is most readily found in woods or forests with water sources in or near by them. The fallen leaves and flowing water bring many nutrients to them through the flow of the water as well as the decay of the leaves that contain some of the nutrients of the tree it once was a part of. They are also capable of living inside plants and animals. Also aiding in the decomposition and fertilization, fungi help decompose plant and animal materials (i.e. waste, flesh, etc.). My hypothesis: I hypothesize that fungi grow in dark areas with water sources and other miscellaneous animal traffic due to the independence from the sun and animal traffic leaving waste and other materials as they come and go. Experiment: The experiment is to first purchase fungi and split them into two equal amounts. Once separated take the first half and plant them next to the flowing water source leaving openly exposed to the sun. Next take the left over half of fungi, plant them in a dark closed in area with the flowing water, such as a wood box flipped upside down. Once that is done set a total trial time of a week, checking in each day to see how they have progressed over the elapsed time. Expected Results: I expect that in my test that I...
