Hypotheses Of The Effects Of Wolf Predation
.... of a long duration, and
statistical analysis of large data sets representative of the populations as a
whole. Predation could limit the prey distribution and decrease abundance. Such
limitation may be desirable in the case of pest species, or undesirable to some
individuals as with game animals or endangered species. Predation may also act
as a major selective force. The effects of predator prey coevolution can explain
many evolutionary adaptations in both predator and prey species.
The effects of wolf predation on species of large ungulates have proven to be
controversial and elusive. There have been many different models p .....

The Wolverine
.... on the attack, reaching speeds of over thirty miles an hour.It also uses it’s
claws to protect itself.
In total I can truly say that the wolverine is one mean guy and he can
kick some major butt. So if you see one remember to stay away or be
brave(stupid) and confront it.

Extinct Animals Research: Woolly Mammoth
.... would be poachers. Due to the endangerment of such a
magnificent species, poachers of pelts and ivory would most certainly be after
it's huge tusks and thick furs, so it would be necessary to post guards around
it's cage at all times.
A large-scale habitat would be constructed for this creature since,
during the period it lived, the Pleistocene, there were no restrictions on the
places it could roam to. There was nothing stopping this beast from stomping
along to wherever it wanted to go. A Woolly Mammoth might find it peculiar to be
stuck in a twenty foot ice field with no predators or other animals whatsoever.
To so .....

About All Sharks
.... pairs of gill slits, there sharks can often
be found in deep water. The frilled shark (CHLAMYDISELACHUS ANGUINEUS)
who's appearance is quite unmistakable due to it's "eel" like appearance, is
perhaps one the strangest shark that exist today.
FOSSIL RECORD: Shark fossil record is fargmentery at best. Most fossils found
so far consist of nothing but teeth in some cases a few vertebra have been
found. This is rare due to the fact that sharks have bones instead, they have
cartiladge which countrary common belief is rather solid. In the rarest of
cases complete fossil have been discovered. Scientific data shows that

Do UFOs Exist?
.... events in history, an extensive review of the UFO literature of
the 1950s finds no mention of it beyond the first press accounts in early July
1947. The only know reference to it as a UFO crash was in a 1955 lecture by
broadcaster and UFO enthusiast Frank Edward. Even in the 1960s the UFO
literature mentioned it only three times, twice in both brief instances, in the
latter rather vaguely. A widely published story reported that personnel from
Roswell Field had a "flying disk" in their possession. When the material was
flown to Fort Worth, Texas, the commander told the press that the "disk" was
really just a weather balloon a .....

Mellville And Darwin's Writings On The Galapagos Islands
.... that the he never directly describes the islands. "Take five-and-twenty heaps
of cinders dumped here and there in an outside city lot" is how Mellville's
description of the Galapagos Islands begins. This reduces the Galapagos islands
from a large, nearly inconceivable place to objects of which most any reader
can create a mental picture. When Mellville describes the flora of the
Galapagos Islands, he compares it with drying "Syrian gourds," aching for water.
Mellville discusses the solitude of the Galapagos Islands in comparison with
Greenland, a familiar place of solitude, the clear water in terms of Lake Erie,
and the "azur .....

The Problem Of Global Warming
.... that does
not all get treated for, and is in the top five for highest amounts of carbon
produced per year. This is another factor that somehow has to be dealt with.
All of these causes of global warming have been know by scientists, it's
the effects we are seeing in today's climate now they had no idea of. Arctic
glaciers are melting and causing the ocean's water level to rise. It has be
proven that if the water level were to rise anymore then we won't be able to see
the state of Louisiana anymore or any coastal areas anywhere. Louisiana is
already having there wetlands filled by the floods. The polar bear is another
example .....

The Atomic Bomb
.... on the test
bomb named the "Trinity". I t was dropped on Alagormado in Texas on July 16th
1945.
When Albert Einstein heard about the "Trinity" he called the president directly
and asked for a halt on all atomic bomb projects for he did not want to hurt
anyone with his discovery. But when spies reported the Germans working on such a
project the Manhatten project was continued.
The long nights there after were hell for the president while deciding to launch
the soon to be completed "Little Boy" bomb.
Finally, the american troops were told to load "Little Boy" in the specifically
designed plane Enola Gay. With Paul Tibbets and .....

UFO's
.... the aircraft
were approximately the size of a DC-4 airliner ( Jackson 4).
This account was the first sighting to ever receive a great deal of
media attention. This sighting gave birth to the phrase "flying Saucer" coined
by a reporter named Bill Begrette. Although not the first UFO sighting in
history, Kenneth Arnolds account is considered to be the first documented UFO
sighting.
The following day Mr. Arnold discovered that in addition to his
sighting there were several others in the Mount Ranier area that same day
(Jackson 6).
When most of think of UFO sightings we picture an unemployed, half-
crazed, .....

The Creation Of The Universe
.... into
becoming a puppet-master and "pulling the strings" of the Earth and all of the
people therein.
Since this paper touches upon many scientific terms, I feel that in
order for the reader to correctly grasp the content I must first define three
words: Theory, Law, and Hypothesis. The definitions will allow for a greater
understanding of this essay and give us an even ground upon which to begin.
Theory; (thÿ1e-rÿ, thÿr1ÿ) noun
1. a. Systematically organized knowledge applicable in a relatively wide
variety of circumstances, especially a system of assumptions, accepted
principles, and rules of procedure devised .....

Dangers And Destructions Of Floods And Hurricanes
.... United
States in the early 1990's 50% of the population was on a coastal county.1
Although they shrink before reaching shore, wind generated waves have been
spotted to be as high as 30 m (100 ft) in the middle of the ocean.2 In 1970 a
major storm in the Bay of Bengal produced heavy seas that flooded regions of
East Pakistan, killing about 200,000 people.3
River flooding can happen a number of ways. The causes are rain,
snowmelt, and ice jams. Soil can not absorb as much water with continuos
moistening. The longer that precipitation lasts the more water flows into
streams as runoff. Cloudburst floods only last for a c .....

Chemistry

land. I am the colorful fireworks "sprocketed" across the dark sky when the
touch of two soft lips are gently pressed together. I am the warm tears
trickling slowly down a child's face when the thought of going to school all
alone crosses his mind. I am te pure exhilaration every time two people fall in
love. I am rubbed roughly against a filthy body and massaged along a baby's butt.
Ancient or modern, I am vigorous.
