This summer Lisa raised three orphaned Common Ravens. They were not aware of wildlife laws, and thought they could raise and release them. We decided to raise them, and hoped they would wild up quickly if we followed the protocol for avoiding imprinting. But this one was a bit different. Release day came. It was great!

So far as I can determine the swan was not officially granted status as the national bird of Denmark by law but by a popular vote held by either Danish Television or Denmark Radio. No, it seems that the Mute Swan derives its popularity in Denmark because of its role in “The Ugly Duckling&# by Hans Christian Andersen.

In " 'Animal Rights:' Pernicious Nonsense for Both Law & Public Policy ," Massachusetts attorney and "sportsman" Richard Latimer is on the mark with some concepts, and way off with others. It's too bad that Latimer's presentation is so obnoxious, as even when he raises what might be valid points, he makes you want to disagree with him.

Since animals cannot be judged morally praiseworthy or blameworthy, the question of whether it is morally wrong for them to eat meat cannot be raised. Since no animals are autonomous (in the sense of being capable of making laws for themselves, or acting on principle), moral concepts such as “right” and “wrong” don’t apply to them.

Following passage of the United States Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966, the California Condor ( Gymnogyps californianus ) was among the first 75 species listed for protection, the so-called “Class of 1967”. Part of its obscurity is due to the fiercely protective relationship Cologne has with its beer.

Maybe those should be protected too? Given that the Black Kite is politely described as an “opportunistic hunter” – which includes the fact that they are more likely to scavenge than most other raptors – the name choice of the company protecting the world’s cyber ecosystem is a bit weird.

For those interested in avian conservation, some knowledge of the bureaucratic process is useful, as it is used to implement many important conservation laws. Duck Stamp sales have provided more then $800 million dollars to protect more than 5.7 million acres of waterfowl habitat and many birders purchase a stamp every year.

There is no need for infants to be raised on cow's milk formulas. As the Newsweek story indicates, 38 states have passed laws giving women the right to breastfeed in any public or private place she’d otherwise be allowed to be. When breast-feeding is not possible, commercial soy formulas are nutritionally adequate.

Having earned both a Master’s Degree in Engineering and in Law, Germain works as a manager for the construction industry. I sat for hours, dreamily watching those rocks raising to the sky, covered by the dense primary vegetation of this subtropical area. Germain has lived in East Asia since 2014. Where are my binos?”

The rule’s reading of the MBTA also raises serious concerns with a United States’ treaty partner, and for the migratory bird resources protected by the MBTA and underlying treaties. It analyzes the relevant case law, addresses canons of statutory construction, and attempts to ascertain Congressional intent.

I was told by a Panamanian bank vice president, “Every multinational knows that if Honduras raises its hourly rate, the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean will have to follow. In throwing out Zelaya they are sending frightening messages to all the other presidents who are trying to raise the living standards of their people.”
