...In the movie “The Hunting Ground,” by filmmakers Kerby Dick and Amy Ziering, they describe that many colleges and universities do not handle sexual assault reports seriously and they do their best to suppress the reports and silence their students. Dick and Ziering use pathos, ethos, and logos to communicate their message to the audience. One way Kerby Dick and Amy Ziering communicate their message is through pathos. In the film, “The Hunting Ground,” the narrator states that one of the victims “was lectured and blamed,” for being raped on campus grounds. This illustrates how this incident was totally unjustified, because they made her feel like she was to blame. Incidents like this makes people frustrated, because the victim’s voice is...

...This lack of support has caused many victims to seek legislative changes themselves, demanding that they be heard by their institutions, peers, and government alike. In the 2015 documentary, The Hunting Ground, a group of survivors and filmmakers come together to expose this apparent lack of efficiency and incite a national debate. The film centrally follows the stories of undergraduate rape survivors and their pursuit of education and justice while being bombarded and harassed by their peers. Survivors and advocates work together to expose “an endemic system of institutional cover-ups, rationalizations, victim-blaming, and denial that creates perfect storm conditions for predators to prey with impunity”(The Hunting Ground). Through their refusal to be silent, it becomes nearly impossible to deny the prevalence of the assault on campuses and the subsequent detrimental...

...A man, barely visible to the naked eye, is crawling along the ground to get to an area beside an abnormally large oak tree. Upon arrival, the man removes his rifle from his back, adorned with a camouflage sleeve and paint job to further add to his obscurity to the unaided eye. Then, just across the ridge, he sees his target walk out of the thick underbrush into a clearing. He looks into his binoculars to more vividly view the clearing that was just ahead and make sure that this was the intended recipient of the 7mm chunk of metal that would be thrown in it direction. Upon deciding that this was his target, he raises his rifle and takes aim through the help of his scope. Finding his mark he prepares for the shot. With the barely audible click...

...And, you really shouldn’t always be looking at the geese, because if you can clearly see them, this can mean that they can see you as well. So, just keep calm and aim for your target. Be more careful on windy days Geese hunting on windy days has a few tricks. Finishing the geese on such weather might cause a problem because they often land shortly and out of the wind. In order to follow their game, you should also be positioned out of the wind, preferably in low areas, behind trees or upon hillsides. Also, on windy days, make sure that you always use the loud and aggressive goose call. Get back to basics If you have tried different ways to call in the geese and they don’t respond, always go back to basics. No matter how professional you have become in the field, try the simple call which very often has great impact.

...money to develop their interests and arrange their spare time. Hunting tourism requires large areas of free ground or near reservations, places with such conditions almost all located in less developing countries which they are relying on the income from wildlife and natural attractions. Calculating the probability, I assume that wealthier people are more likely from developed countries than developing countries. emand causes supply, so I think developed countries have more responsibilities to protect animals in other countries. The issues occurred during hunting tourism are plenty, such as remove livelihood, reduce protected areas and drive more people and resources into hunting. Nowadays, more and more people debating over whether should restrict or just forbidden hunting tourism, however, during the same time they are arguing, the growing trend of killed animals are not stopped. Government should ban hunting tourism as soon as possible. In my opinion, hunting affirms a hunter’s belief that he is superior to a lion, bear, bush pig and other wildlife, regardless of their status as endangered. Therefore, he will continue to believe that their lives are worth less than his. Criticizing the behavior of people who goes for hunting tourism cannot change the fact that hunting is their personal interests. Only when there is law to protect the life of wildlife could stop them from hunting. Then the sustainability could be guaranteed. Moreover, developing...

The Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife was created as a part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the Department of the Interior on November 6, 1956, by the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956 (70 Stat. 1119). That act was amended on July 1, 1974, by Public Law 93-271 (88 Stat. 92) to, among other purposes, abolish the position of Commissioner of Fish and Wildlife and designate the Bureau as the U.S. Fish and WildlifeService” (www.fws.gov/help/about_us.html).The U.S. fish and wild life service is the principle federal...

...What might 19th century Native Americans have said about Manifest Destiny? Why would they have taken this perspective? Do you think that Native Americans enjoyed the Manifest Destiny? The answer is no. Native American tribes split apart, moved completely, got taken away from their homeland and were thrown into a new world or them. According to the Kansas Historical Society, “No tribe liked the idea. . . . Some tribes, like the Potawatomi, split apart over the stress of removal. . . . No one was happy” (Kansas Historical Society). One main reason the Native Americans did not approve of the idea of Manifest Destiny is because they were kicked off of their land.

...is divided into three categories, the first being the Lower Paleolithic (between 2.5 million – 200,000 BCE). During this time, our ancestors, such as Homo erectus and Homo ergaster, lived in nomadic groups and began making the first stone tools. The second Paleolithic category is the Middle Paleolithic (200,000 – 45,000 BCE), marked by the first Homo sapiens sapiens beginning to develop modern behaviors: more sophisticated tools, hunting, and the start of symbolic/ritualistic behavior. By the Upper Paleolithic (ending approximately 10,000 BCE), Neanderthal man had disappeared completely, and our ancestors were exhibiting fully modern behaviors such as making a wide range of even more sophisticated tools out of stone, bone, and ivory; hunting and fishing; and creating various forms of art such as figures and cave paintings. In the absence of a written language, early humans were still able to communicate and express themselves, and their spirituality, using pictures instead of words. They could record the locations of successful hunting grounds and invoke the animal spirits to aid them in their endeavors. Cave Paintings Cave paintings are the oldest form of Paleolithic art found to date, and can be found on almost every continent in the world. Until recently, the Chauvet cave paintings in France were believed to be the oldest, dating back to approximately 32,000 BCE; however, using carbon dating of the calcium deposits formed over the mineral-based paint, the cave paintings...

...the Lion and the Tiger both belong to the scientific classification name of Panthera Leo. The Lion and the Tiger are the largest of the feline species though they appear to be different in many aspects, they also contain many similarities. Lions and Tigers are similar, as well as different, in the hunting habits they contain, their appearance, as well as their habitats. Most already know that the feline species are carnivorous, meaning they eat meat; this is of course, also a fact for that of the Lion and the Tiger. Both of these felines have very sharp claws and teeth in which they use for hunting and consuming their prey. While they both have long and sharp fangs they do not use their teeth for chewing, they instead are used for ripping off pieces of flesh and then proceed to swallow these pieces whole. Since the Lion and the Tiger live in different habitats which contain different species of prey, their options for food choices are different as well. The Lion has the preference of hunting and consuming hoofed animals such as; antelope, zebra, and wildebeest. The Tiger also prefers hoofed animals but has a different choice of selection including the deer and wild boar. The hunting habits of these large cats are different in many ways as well. Lions are known to stay in groups, which is referred to as a “pride”. Since the Lions live within a pride they hunt together as a group and coordinate the hunt leading up to the kill. Though the female Lion usually does most of the work...
