Lesson 15 Review Essay

They do not seize healthy animals for captivity. Many people will argue that SeaWorld trainers are performers rather than biologists, when in reality, they must now pass a certain amount of tests and examinations before coming in contact with any animal. They also only care about the fact that SeaWorld keep Orcas in captivity, but will have no problem with a zoo. This is hypocritical and unfair, as, just like zoos, SeaWorld contribute

Also, any companion animals that happen to get loose and mate cannot have babies as well. This brings me to my last point where there is already a program in place where there are feral cat trap-neuter-release programs (Notes). This does essential the same thing by preventing cats from having kittens. Essentially, this decreases the already overpopulated companion animals. Finally, the last way to combat this overpopulation is to educate children, friends, family members, and anyone else about pet overpopulation, and how they can adopt instead of pay a lot of money for a puppy/kitten.

Doris likes to help strays, that is an interesting fact because not all people like animals it Ties into the stray because Doris is helping a stray animal get home. (It is her home, you will find that out if you read the story) Reason 1 - Doris is kind and likes helping strays One day school was canceled and Doris was snow shoveling her driveway and found a stray dog and she ran inside and told her mom and dad she asked if she could keep the dog but her father told her no! We do not have enough money to feed that dog or give it a good home so no! But the dad said that she could keep it overnight until I take it to the shelter. So Doris put the dog in the basement and went to bed then next morning she saw the dog in her dad 's truck as he was pulling out of the drive was, then Doris ran up to her room and started to

Dog flea control and management requires an integrated approach. For effective treatment both the host animal and the environment must be treated at the same time. Control of fleas on the pet generally requires the use of insecticides. Although flea combs can remove some fleas, combing should be thought of as a method for detecting fleas rather than removing them. If an animal is to be treated for other conditions besides fleas, such as expression of anal glands, these procedures should be done before the insecticide application to minimize insecticide contact with interior mucosal membranes.

Flatwood Salamanders do not adapt very well to their environment, which is why they are endangered. One adaptation that the salamander has made would be that it uses crayfish burrows to live in. They also have adapted to use camouflage by making themselves grey and black, so that they can hide in shadows, and dark places. They have also learned to breed in isolated ponds without and predatory fish, so that they and their babies do not get eaten. Another adaptation that they have made would be that their eggs only hatch when wetlands

In the article, “Teenage Girl is Dogs’ Best Friend” states, “Faye helps with giving your dog that generally miss out in the first instant of getting adopted…a second chance,” this means that Faye helps with animals getting adopted. She helps them have a second chance at life so they won’t have to be killed. She does everything that she can for an animal to get adopted. Because when an animal is not adopted and another animal has to come into the shelter, it will get killed. I think that when an animal needs to come into the shelter but there isn 't enough room, that the people who work there need to make room so the other animal does not get killed.

There is a plethora of reasons people visit zoos, they allow curious customers the chance to submerge themselves in a foreign environment filled with species they wouldn 't see in an average day. But, animal captivity costs outweigh the benefits, and the violation of the rights of the individual animals is unjustifiable and purely unethical. Being born into zoos and dying in zoos effects wild animals physically and emotionally. They were not made to be watched every hour of everyday and kept in small confined artificial habitats, and these small factors alone end up being lethal for many unfortunate animals. By having knowledge of the gruesome events zoo animals endure, and taking initiative to speak out and spread the word about the topic of how zoos negatively affect the mentality and physical well being of animals, potentially it can open the minds and eyes of peers.

Most animals are locked up in small cages all day being kept like a house pet (Keeping Wild Caught Animals - Unsafe, Illegal, Inhumane). Other animals are treated very poorly, and used in shows for entertainment like the circus (Should Wild Animals Be Kept As Pets?). Some animals are also shipped to people, and most don’t make it to the destination alive (Why Wild Animals Should Not Be Pets). When the animals don’t do what they are supposed to do in shows, it leads to neglect from the owners. Some people think that when they get the animal they are helping it, but it decreases the chance of the animal having a normal life in the wild.

Makeup companies should not be granted permission to test on animals. Cosmetic companies continue to test makeup on many different animals all over the world. Although cosmetic testing is banned in a few countries, most major countries continue to test products on animals. There are much more beneficial ways to ensure that makeup products are safe to use. Makeup companies waste time and money into animal testing.

Many chimpanzees kept in laboratory housing settings show a variety of serious behavioral abnormalities, including repetitive rocking, drinking of urine, or self-mutilation (Birkett LP, Newton-Fisher). In nature,, chimpanzees have the freedom to roam around. Unfortunately, those in captivity have to adapt to these newly found changes in the environment. Most chimpanzees in captivity are not given the opportunity to experience what other wild chimpanzees do. For some, it can certainly be a struggle, especially if they were engaged in their previous habitat.
