Research Paper On European Cave Lion
Two animals that I chose are Panthera leo spelaea known as European or Eurasian cave lion and cave bear. European cave lion lived from about 370,000 to 10,000 years ago. From the paintings and the fossils that have been found we can say that cave lion is much bigger that the normal lions that we know today. Rounded, protruding ears, tufted tail, and perhaps faint, tiger-like stripes are the common thing between all of the lion caves. Mountain lion was living in Europe until the last European Ice Age. Cave lion lived in the same time pried that man was living in the cave because there is a panting of them all over the caves. The paintings in Paleolithic Europe shows some species that only people who saw them and lived around them can paint them

    Narwhals are protected, mostly by two very important laws. One is that narwhals are illegal to hunt unless they’re part of the Inuit tribe because narwhal is a part of the nutrients in their diet. The second law is that the tribe is limited to killing five narwhals per year. These laws help to dramatically lessen the amount of narwhals that are killed per year, but sometimes these laws are poorly reinforced. These rules are by the Narwhal Protection Regulations,which are part of the Canadian Fisheries Act. Some other parts of this are mothers and calves are at all times protected, no exceptions, full use made of narwhal carcasses, and the complete documentation and labeling of every tusk that comes into their possession.…

    In Secondhand Lions, I felt that there were many important life lessons. From the start of the movie I thought that there might not be any connection between the uncles and Walter. Throughout the movie I realized that I was very wrong and that this new family had a lot to learn from each other. By the end of the story I could truly see that the everything that happened between the characters would always be with them the rest of their life. Both Walter and his uncles learned a great deal about life which all of them needed to know.…

    Walter Cronkite, Anderson Cooper, and George Plimpton; three reporters who not only reported a story, but decided to live their story. In mid February 1968, Walter Cronkite embedded himself in Vietnam during the Vietnam War to cover the Tet Offensive. In 2012, Anderson Cooper embedded himself in Syria during the, still ongoing, Syrian Civil War to cover the atrocities of President Assad’s regime against his own people. In 1963, George Plimpton embedded himself with the National Football League’s Detroit Lions to cover the life of a professional quarterback. Plimpton’s adventure may be less dangerous, but he’s still a journalist with an interesting story to tell. All journalists will run into strange and interesting stories in their career, however, journalists must be ready for any possibility. Like Dan Rather once said "When the going gets weird, anchor men punt." In Plimpton’s case, this was almost a literal possibility. Throughout “Paper Lion”, Plimpton makes it clear that despite personal risks and lengthy processes, he is dedicated to getting the real story, or in this case, the true athlete’s experience. Paper Lion is based off Plimpton’s experiences with the Detroit Lions as a third string quarterback during training camp. Even in the opening, George is confused for an Episcopalian minister when he arrives at the training camp. George doesn’t quite fit the image of an NFL quarterback. This is based solely on George’s muscular build, not his…

    Did you know that almost eighty percent of the fish living on a reef could be killed by a single fish that is only about the size of a human hand? This fish happens to be called the lionfish and is mostly known for its beautiful features and deadly poison. Lionfish are indigenous to the Pacific Ocean; however, they have recently invaded the Atlantic Ocean and are growing in population at an uncontrollable rate. Marine biologists and even everyday snorkelers fear the dangers of these fish and have even started taking the matters of getting rid of them into their own hands. On the other hand doctors, chefs, and even snorkelers consider lionfish to be very useful and entertaining. According to marine biologists, the…

    In the first chapter of Grendel, I believe that Grendel is more animal than human. In Grendel he is portrayed as a sensitive, intelligent, and immature creature.Grendel is more animal than human because he does act like an animal. For instance, When Grendel states “I cry and , and hug myself, and laugh, letting out all the salt tears…”(Gardner 6). Even animals have feelings. I feel Grendel is not welcomed within society. He feels as though he has worthless. As an example, “Pointless, ridiculous monster crouched in the shadows...”(Gardner 6). He hides in the shadows as he looks for his prey not being welcomed by anyone else. Grendel feasts upon other animals and humans. He eats more cattle than anything. For example, “Cows have more meat and,…
