4 The Love Of Animals

FEBRUARY 18, 2011

I recently got the chance to read the book, 100 Heartbeats: The Race to Save Earth’s Most Endangered Species , written by Jeff Corwin. In this book, Corwin shares what he has learned as he travels the world to see first hand the species that are endangered. This book truly helps bring their stories to light!

Just a month after Busch Gardens took in a cheetah cub whose mother wasn’t caring for it, the park’s animal care team has identified the perfect four-legged friend for the 8-week-old cat: a 16-week old female yellow Labrador puppy. The two were first introduced over the weekend and have been spending supervised play times together each day.

The interests of those working for conservation and those working for animal rights and animal welfare don’t always perfectly align like you might think they do. It also protects hundreds of species of birds and mammals, and thousands of plants, and everything else you need in a functional ecosystem. You do a lot of good.

The definition of the word HUNT is “to chase or search for game or other wild animals for the purpose of catching or killing.” The Amur Leopard ( Panthera pardus orientalis – above) is just one majestic animal on the Critically Endangered (CR) list with less than 100 individuals in the wild due to hunting for its fur.
