endangered species in the world, the Dama Gazelle. The Dama Gazelle are herbivores. Their diet consists of shrubs, acacias, and desert dates. During the wet season, this species migrates to the Sahara Desert. During a drought, this species migrates out of the Sahara Desert to moister habitats. They do not need much water to survive. These animals can live off little droplets of water from their food source. One article from “National Geography” states, “Dama Gazelle numbers have fallen by about 80% in

American women are here by showing her power as a women through history by displaying herself as a gazelle, a mother, and a goddess. Giovanni writes about a gazelle in the poem. It says “with a packet of goat’s meat and a change of clothes/ I crossed it in two hours/ I am a gazelle so swift/ so swift you can’t catch me (18-22).”This woman did the impossible she somehow transformed herself into a gazelle and survived with only the resources that she obtained to make it across the desert as quickly as
caterpillar alive. This may seem cruel to the human mind if we apply the concept of suffering to this process, but ultimately, this is nature at work. He cites several primary sources of data including the behavior of the wasp to the cheetah and the gazelle. This inductive thought process illustrates and supports Darwin’s theory of natural selection. Dawkins further argues that purposeful design is an illusion. In doing so, Dawkins cites the work of William Paley as a secondary source to argue his
Could you imagine a world without tigers, the giant panda, or the rhinoceros? What a paler place it would be. Astonishing amounts of animals are considered critically endangered and near extinction. If we would like these animals to be around for future generations, we cannot hesitate in our efforts to help them. Rhinoceros - Sadly, the White, Black and Javan rhinoceros are all on the critically endangered list. The Indonesian Javan Rhino is in particularly bad shape with having less than 60 of
Introduction In today's world there exists a long list of environmental problems caused by the human race. One of the smaller and lesser known is that of textile waste. “Nearly 21 billion pounds of textiles are thrown out each year” (What Do Stores Do with Unsold Merchandise?). Included in this waste are sporting goods textiles. Not only is old equipment thrown out new equipment is also thrown out. Some places would love any equipment old or new because they don't have it. Because there is such a

Growing up my mother was opposed to me sleeping throughout the day because she wanted me to be more productive. But what if I told her that I was just trying to increase my body growth? Or that this is the only time I can get some sleep because my predators weren’t active. There are many reasons to why we sleep but these main two really go into depth. Adaptive theory explains that we sleep because the body physically needs to rest in order to function effectively. The second one, restorative theory

Similar to how a lion shows power, control, and dominance over a gazelle. They have to be in control of the ones that they want to eat (in the case of the lion) or abuse, because if they do not then they will not be able to abuse or eat

Running traces all the way back to caveman times where scientists believe they ran down their food. “Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, it knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're the lion or a gazelle-when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.” -Christopher McDougall. To be a successful runner you must overstep boundaries
all men of flesh and blood lift up the lament. Fate has spoken; like a hooked fish he lies stretched on the bed, like a gazelle that is caught in a noose.” (Gilgamesh 42). Gilgamesh is compared with a fish and a gazelle because both a fish and gazelle are animals, and animals death is natural; the hooked fish is dead, and so is the hanged gazelle. Just as how the fish nor the gazelle could escape death, Gilgamesh could not either because death is inevitable for all natural creatures and life. The people

For example: the red oat grass is consumed by the Thomson gazelle, the Thomson gazelle is then attacked and consumed by the cheetah, the cheetah is consumed by the lion, the lion once dead is consumed by the vultures and the land scavengers, and they are consumed by the decomposers.
