One of them is a long critique of philosopher David Oderberg's argument against animal rights. I have a number of posts about animals waiting in the wings, but I have been saving them for summer, when I have more time. Mylan and I appreciate your interest in our blog. Perhaps Jonathan will post some items this summer as well.

Pygmy Cormorant is easy to observe, in winter from the banks of the Sava and the right, urbanised bank of the Danube River, also around the Veliko Ratno Island Reserve (#1, visible from the riverbanks); in spring best viewed in wetlands along the levees at the left (northern) bank of the Danube. And statistically, it is true in most cases.

Somewhere below that mysterious eagle, at the far shore of the lake, lies one Bengal Tiger … and further to the right – two more! Unaware of the cruel statistics, Telia slowly walks through the water disappearing towards the next cove, behind now golden grass of the evening. He has earned his tip.

How successful they are at creating new vegans or animal rights advocates depends on many factors. . Plus, selling it is a bit different as the quality of the writing and the story is of paramount importance. Books are obvious opportunities for advocacy and vegan education. The publishing business in the US is unfortunately celebrity-based.

Then again, given that the paper has 12 authors, this may just be statistics at work. According to the HBW, “only female incubates and cares for young … [while] males leave during [the] incubation period” Right on, sharpies!

It is not just a few outspoken animal rights fanatics who hold this view. For example, Carl Cohen, who has argued at length that animals don’t have rights, admits: If animals feel pain (and certainly mammals do,), we humans surely ought cause no pain to them that cannot be justified.

But each time Oprah or a guest mentioned a statistic, and the audience was appropriately surprised and disgusted by that statistic, a statistic about animals quickly popped into my mind. But it's the same concept that underlies both situations: viewing others as commodities that you have a right to exploit.

Here’s a tidbit from the NRA’s Hunters’ Rights website: “Sandhill cranes are hunted much like geese, with decoys set in fields and hunters stationed in blinds. Wicked, right? Isn’t that neat? I agree with what they say wholeheartedly because I’m not trained to do something like that when they are.

That is 11 more than the total for 2012 and we are only in March, so we have done pretty well and there are more birds right here in Australia to see even without thinking about an overseas trip! For those of you who like statistics here’s a chart of the birds seen only in one location or in all three locations as of March 8th!

Howell, Ian Lewington, and Will Russell, right in front of me. It is a book that embraces identification and analysis of avian rarities and vagrancy patterns throughout the United States and Canada with an enthusiasm and devotion to statistical, geographic, and ornithological detail that will both delight and challenge birders.

Victoria is a down-to-earth person, and she wouldn’t want to read the many paragraphs I’d already written full of detailed observations and statistics, some even written down on the computer and not in my head.

Macy's should do the right thing and take out television and newspaper ads inviting anyone who purchased such a falsely-labeled jacket from any of its stores an opportunity to return the jackets for a full refund. The treatment of the dogs can't really be as bad as I have described, right? But is it really?
