PG 34 HOME ON THE RANGE FOR UTAH PRAIRIE DOGS Utah prairie dogs lives underground in high sagebrush steppes. The home that they made for themselves also support the life of their predator. But the farmer do not like them. Because they eat crop in order to survive during their winter hibernations. It is harmful to alfalfa and hay. Prairie dogs also eat the food that are for live stock. The farmer used poison and guns to kill prairie dogs in the 1920s and led them to extinct. Even though prairie dogs are not on the endangered animals list anymore, they are still facing threat from forest plague, development of city, and drought. EDF tried to protect prairie dogs by introducing a program that enable farmers to sell their land to developers, …show more content…
Xel Energy, one of the power plant compony that use wind, generate a large amount of power for use at a low cost on money and environment. Obama’s climate action plan make the United States the leader of solving the problem of climate change. It called for the reduce emission of carbon dioxide, reform on the power plants, and use renewable resources. EDF works with other organization to help control and watch the change in climate and population. But the process of solving the solution problem and climate change is never easy. Many people disagree with the president’s plan, especially the automakers and the National Republican Congressional Committee. The courts rejected a lot of the opposition point of view. Many coral power plants are reformed. They use more efficient equipment to generate power from wind and use clean, renewable resources. EDF have helped company to get clean resources with a reasonable price. EDF did not establish their relationship with Xel right away. As the coral power plants are shutting down, EDF help Xel to continue going and generate power. The effort of government to shutting down coral power plants and the spread idea of it have really help to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and change to renewable …show more content…
The air pollution increase the risk of getting cancer, heart attack, and respiratory problems. EDF have been trying to solve air pollution problems for years, and it eventually reduce the emission of car and the sulfur content of gasoline. They tries to make the new generation of cars to produce less carbon monoxide. Even though oil and gas industry strongly reject the idea of lowering standard, some place already lower their emission standard for car. The standard of emission car had rise did not solve the problem itself. But, however, it did make process to approach the solution. The low standard help the car company to make car that emit less carbon monoxide and sulfur gas. The gas contains less sulfur can help the pollution-control equipment to work more efficient. It reduce the risk of children from getting respiratory
Last, the farmers and ranchers whose cattle land has been invaded by the prairie dogs are eradicating them. Although the loss of prairie dogs is the main logic behind the endangerment of the black-footed ferrets, a few other factors contribute as well. As well as most small animals, black-footed ferrets are prey.
(Climate Change Action Plan) to ensure the directives government take are transparent and in line with COP 21 GHG emissions (see appendix) (see Figure 3)standards and provincial targets. (Environmental Commissioner of Ontario, 2016) Present Scenario Despite ON’s low-carbon electricity supply, 80% (see Figure 1)of total energy source is still fossil fuel based and that accounts for 70% of total GHG emissions (see Figure 2)in the province (see appendix). The retraction of coal fired refineries backed by presence of nuclear energy helped bring down the GHG emissions of electricity sector to 7%(of total 171 Mt, 2013) yet transportation, industry and building sectors
Scientists estimate that a healthy population of ferrets requires more than 10,000 acres of prairie dogs to survive long-term. Very few clusters of prairie dogs of this magnitude remain today, which makes even smaller groups important for conservation of the ferret and other species that rely on ecosystems with prairie
The gray wolf 's expressive behavior is more complex than that of the coyote and golden jackal, as necessitated by its group living and hunting habits. While less gregarious canids generally possess simple repertoires of visual signals, wolves have more varied signals which subtly inter grade in intensity.[12][13] When neutral, the legs are not stiffened, the tail hangs down loosely, the face is smooth, the lips untensed, and the ears point in no particular direction.[135] Postural communication in wolves consists of a variety of facial expressions, tail positions and piloerection.[120] Aggressive, or self-assertive wolves are characterized by their slow and deliberate movements, high body posture and raised hackles, while submissive ones carry their bodies low, sleeken their fur and lower their ears and tail.[136] When a breeding male encounters a subordinate family member, it may stare at it, standing erect and still with the tails horizontal to its spine.[137] Two forms of submissive behavior are recognized: passive and active. Passive submission usually occurs as a reaction to the approach of a dominant animal, and consists of the submissive wolf lying partly on its back and allowing the dominant wolf to sniff its anogenital area.
This brought the ranchers to a huge disagreement over the land and the fences negatively affected their profit and cattle. The animals were restricted by the barbed wire fences during droughts and blizzards not allowing them to roam around freely as they previously did (Carnes and Garraty 391). Disabling the cattle from scouring for food and water caused many of the animals to die. Before long open-range ranching soon came to an
Grazing is a large part of why many native plants are becoming rare as grazing causes the plants to be uprooted. Farmers are frustrated with these animals because it causes a loss in income due to the damages that feral ungulates such as pigs and goats cause to their crops. Crops such as macadamia nuts, coffee, vegetables, and fruit orchards. Not only are crops being destroyed but landscaping as well. There are many homeowners that care for their yards only to be a victim of the overpopulation of feral ungulates invading and destroying their yards.
Pit Bulls are kind and loving. These dogs need a loving environment and a nice home. These don’t have lacking jaws, not a breed, and were war hero 's at one point in time. These dogs can be good protection. They won 't attack unless they feel threatened.
Although, they do separate into colonies, neighborhoods, communities, and all the way into little families that commonly consist of one male prairie dog, one to three female prairie dogs, and their kids (Messenger). After all of Dr. Slobodchikoff’s research on Gunnison’s prairie dogs, he wonders if their language is similar to other types of prairie dogs. Dr. Slobodchikoff also wonders, if the other types of prairie dogs can communicate with each other. Even though Dr. Slobodchikoff has yet to do this research, he looked at the sonograms of the reaction between each type of prairie dogs when a human crossed the field.
Though this vacuum may not be the best way to get prarie dogs out it is the only way. There are all these bad characters about prairie dogs but in reality we still need the prairie dog as a part of the our food chain because without them our animals below the food chain will overpopulate and animals over the food chain will die and there will be a shortage on the Species. Prairie dogs are extremely unpopular and so much that the government has tried many to abolish them.
In June 2014, nonprofit organizations and friends of wild horse preservation petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list the animals as an endangered species so as to protect them from cattlemen who would prefer the public lands be used for grazing herds than those “pesty” wild horses (though the cattle population drastically outnumbers the horses). The groups requested that the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) recognize North American wild horses as a distinct population segment (DPS) of the species Equus caballus and protect them on all US federal lands. “These horses are different, they are treated different under the law, they behave differently and there’s some evidence they are genetically different,” Jennifer Barnes, a lawyer for Friends of Animals based in suburban
Some cities in china have everyone wear gas masks when they go outside. That 's just tragic! Can you imagine getting lung cancer for standing outside for 10 minutes? Cars can release 2 different kinds of pollution. There is primary pollution that goes straight into the air to pollute it and secondary pollution.
“Crunch!” that’s the sound of your bones. I personally believe that Pit Bulls are not a very good pet of a family. These dogs have bad characteristic such as, them being fighting dogs, they are aggressive, they are unpredictable, and they bite a lot of people. To start with, Pit Bulls are fighting dogs.
Automotive emission related air pollution must be reduced before its effects on health can
Less Dependency on Foreign fuel: Reliance on overseas companies for non renewable energy sources like fossil fuels can be decreased, if electricity from wave energy can be unsheathed to its highest level. Not only it will assist to make the air free from pollution but can also create an opportunities to employ millions of people in this sector. 3.
There are many problems that threatens society and one problem in particular, air pollution is a problem that threatens everyone. Air pollution is the contamination of air with pollutants that are harmful to humans, animals, and the environment. It began to be a problem when humans discovered the uses of fire and then the amount of air pollution exponentially grew after the industrial revolution, and is still a problem even today. The largest causes of air pollution are from human activities such as burning of fossil fuels and gas emissions from manufacturing plants. There are ways that ordinary people can help contribute to prevent air pollution and or else face the dangerous consequences of polluted air.
