Essays on Cubs

I visited the zoo last month, on a windy afternoon. It was an absolutely fantastic day, amongst different faunae, and a supremely knowledgeable experience.

The Lion, or the Panthera Leo, usuallya lives in groups called prides. One pride may consist of 15 to 50 lions. The pact that a pride has is to hunt for food, raise cubs, as well as fight against any ...

Introduction

Environmental adaptation is essential to the survival of any animal. In fact, this attribute helps organisms obtain nutrients, build homes, withstand extreme weather conditions, attach mates and enhance their safety (Nelson et al. 2008). With this in mind, it is worth appreciating the fact that polar and grizzly bears have different physical and behavioral characteristics due to environmental adaptation in spite of their species similarities. The polar bear is specially adapted to survive in the cold pole regions. Its body structure and genetic composition have substantially evolved to accommodate the low temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. Its behavioral attributes ...

The lion is a member of the cat family. However, this animal is significantly different because more often than not, it does not display the typical characteristics of the cat family members.

In the 1986 John Hughes comedy Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, the titular troublemaker (Matthew Broderick) brings his girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara) and his friend Cameron (Alan Ruck) with him on a day of hooky in downtown Chicago, skipping their suburban school to get a taste of the big city. As much as the film is an expression of youthful exuberance, carpe diem philosophies and the need to live life by your own rules, writer/director Hughes also uses this opportunity to craft a wonderful love letter to the city of Chicago, Illinois, where he grew up. Says Hughes of the location of ...

Introduction

The giant panda is a member of the bear family living in mountainous terrain in China. An article entitled “Giant panda fact file” (n.d.) contains much useful information about the animal, including its Latin name: Ailuropoda melanoleuca. Adults are mostly solitary in habit, meeting mainly in the mating season, which is between March and May, when they utter loud calls to each other through the mountainous forests. Unlike some other members of the bear family, giant pandas do not hibernate; they tend to relocate to lower altitudes to avoid the worst of the winter weather, and may also move around ...

One of the most popular sports movies in the United States is Hoosiers, which is ostensibly the story of tiny Hickory High School’s trip to the finals of the Indiana state basketball tournament – and its escape with the championship trophy. It is also the story, though, of Norman Dale, who coached Hickory to its title. Hired to coach the team by an old friend who was an administrator at the school, Dale has an extremely hoary skeleton in his closet – the fact that he hit one of his own players while coaching in Ithaca, New York, and that ...
