Citation: Braaf Ellen,R “Wild to Mild” Choices April 2017,
Summary: “Wild to Mild” is about how cats became a thing. Before cats were tigers they were hunters at a point they help egyptian hunt for birds. They ate meat and their bodies build for power,speed, and stealth. The article was also about how people domesticated tigers into cats. Archaeologist found cats living near humans in Israel but they couldn’t tell if it was a wild cat or a pet. The ancient Egypt may have like cats because they ate pesky rats,mice,and snake. Some families shave their eyebrow if their cat die that how much they fell in love with cats. Some people like the Europeans believed cats were sent by devils but now cats are all over the place. Human learn to love
What do you think the cats in the movie actually represented? (6 pts) This should be a minimum of one paragraph.
Chapters 1-4 of the book “Choice Words” written by Peter Johnston discuss how language is a powerful teaching tool. The author provides examples and explanations of how what teachers’ say and do not say could have a positive or negative impact on their student’s literate lives. The author says “Children, in their own ways, teach us about the language of our classrooms. We have to ask what discursive histories have made it possible for them to say what they say” (Johnston, 2004, p.3). In my opinion, this translates as what teachers say in the classroom shapes their student’s language, thoughts and impacts their development of agency. For example, the author talks about a little girl in the first grade that says her father is going
The feline was the most important animal given divine honors because it was admired for its energy or power, strength and agility (Ions, 103). Egyptians first domesticated cats around 2000 BCE in Egypt. This was essentially because of their instincts to catch and kill rats and other rodents (Michelle). Eventually these domesticated house pets surpassed other animals of its time and elevated its status to a worshipped deity. Goddesses that are often depicted with a lion or cat embodiment are; Mafdet, Bastet, Sakhemet, Tefnut (Pinch, 134). Egyptian gods depicted with a lion or cat embodiment are Atum-Ra and Bes. All w ere associated with the sun-god Ra, sometimes being identified as “The Eye of Ra”. Ra was viewed as one of the most important gods because the sun controls farming and crops (Pinch, 129). Egyptians considered cats as royalty and treated them as such through laws that protected them from any harm. Therefore, if any human ...
A few of the misconceptions that people have of feral children stem from Disney’s romanticization of these movies. The films are praised for their fun and uplifting stories, the tales of boys who were raised by animals and eventually rejoined society, because they find the love of their lives. Although these are children movies and should not be taken as academic, most individuals are not well informed about feral children, so they tend to use Disney’s portrayal of feral children and try to apply it to reality. Within these classic childhood movies lies a traumatic reality for some children that are inaccurately represented, such as; In The Jungle Book, wolves raised Mogli, but he socializes with multiple species in the jungle. Wolves are pack animals they stick together, they may have slight interaction with other animals, but surely they would not leave their home for them. He was able to walk bipedally while only occasionally walking on all fours, this has never been true in an animal reared feral child. Animal reared children adopt the motor skills that their caregiver has shown them, so in Mogli’s case he should have solely walked quadrupedally. The last inaccurate representation is the idea that Mogli could form a romantic attachment to a human girl, because he was raised in the wild he has had no interaction with humans, he was not socialized
Criminals have been committing crimes for centuries, and they are always fooling the police detectives and federal agencies sometimes. If the justice departments would actually look at the persons thought processes and reasoning before a crime is committed, the justice departments will be able to answer the reason for the crime. The different departments could possibly figure out why the criminal did what they did in the first. For instance, they should use a couple of criminology theories to help them with certain cases that are more difficult than the rest. The theories that the justice departments should use in their systems are the rational choice and biological theories of criminology.
After a while, it was such that if I was home, the cats would follow me where ever I went. Just like Stickeen who “was sure to be at his heels, provided I had not gone out.”(par. 7). Every time I drove into the driveway, regardless of where they would be, they would come running out to greet me. The minute I stepped out of the car, they would circle me brushing against my feet and look at me with excitement in their eyes. Then they would stand up on their hind limbs and ask for a petting on their
The pet can be any type of animal, such as kitten, puppy, fox, wolf, and even a unicorn or mermaid. The pet may take on animalistic habits when they are able to. The owner’s role is to care for their pet and offer structure through rules and reinforcement. If they are good pets, common rewards include petting or treats, such as finger foods and candies. The pet or their owner can also purchase collars, leashes ears, and tails for the pet to wear to feel more animal-like on websites such as Etsy. Those extra things are rewarding to the submissive and can make it easier for them to get into an animalistic state of mind. Getting into an animalistic state of mind can be stress relieving for the submissive. A well-known kitten is Scream Kiwi, whom is a
The poem entitled “Curiosity” written by Alastair Reid is a symbolic poem that uses cats as a metaphor for humans. It relates felines to people in the sense of curiosity, and what could be considered actually living life to the fullest. Essentially, this work contradicts the popular phrase, “curiosity killed the cat” by placing it within a broader context. Instead of discouraging curiosity, Reid explains why people should embrace it.
...tion, including their initial evolution, their domestication, and the roles they played in human society throughout the ages. It is a relatively new book being published in 2010. Darcy Morey, the author of this book is a zooarchaeologist and focuses his research on the relationship between dogs and humans throughout time. He is a graduate of the University of Tennessee. This book is based on the authors own research and also refers to the information gathered by many other scientists, all of which are listed in the reference section of the book. As mentioned this book contains the results of research from many scientists and is beneficial for learning both general and more scientific knowledge on the subject. I would recommend it to anybody who is conduction a research on the topic. This book was found using I-Share using the search term the domestication of dogs.
There are two classes in The Aristocats’ cat world: an upper class cat, and lower class street cat. The
Finally, the most common choice people make that causes them to be obese is eating unhealthy. Obesity frequently occurs from poor diet. This includes eating processed foods and foods with high fat content, such as sugary sodas, candies, and sweets. Filling themselves with these unhealthy foods leaves individuals with little room for healthy choices such as fruits and vegetables. Eating out frequently at a fast food chain or restaurant, where ordering fattening foods is the norm, contributes to a poor diet. In addition to numerous unhealthy options, large portion sizes at restaurants are also a factor which contributes to obesity. Comfort eating is another unhealthy choice. Comfort eating occurs whenever somebody feels depressed or has a
As a new presidental canidate, I am proud to represent the Remedy Party as an upcoming choice to society. Our title, giving off a healing and positive feeling,which for the most part will play an important role in acheiving a society close to perfection. We must remove the evils that have rooted themselves in our socitey. We must take the inititative instead of simply dealing with its effects on a daily basis. We must enforce and restore our society to its natural and proper condtion. For too long, the people have suffered from issues that have easy solutions but is being prevented because of ther own selfish opinions. The heavy bias of one universal religion that our diverese society is exposed to is also a factor, in order for progress to
Stories about children who were adopted and raised by wolves, monkeys, and bears appear from time to time. These reports are causing dismay or amaze readers of journalistic chronicles. In the middle ages, these "little savages" were seen as a symbol of chaos, heresy, insanity, and curse of God. These are those children, who have never seen humans; therefore, their behavior and attitude is very distant from normal human children. It is so amazing that different species are able to live so closer to other species with no fear or hesitation. Feral children are those children, who lived in isolation; therefore, they are able to live with young ones of other species such as bear, wolf or monkey. Due to this reason they are unable to imitate the behaviors of humans (Adler, 2013).
Then, some animals are domesticated and some animals are not. In line 5 for “A Blessing,” it says “They have come gladly out of the willows”. The two Indian ponies were probably tamed to welcome people to make sure that they know that the two Indian ponies were nice. In lines 10 and 11 for “Predators,” it says “The dog does not understand wild nature. I also was domesticated.” This sentence was probably meant to say that the dog was not ever domesticated so the dog can be wild and the cat wanted to get into a fight with the dog but she could not because she was domesticated to
The Public Choice For some parents, deciding on a school for their children can be a difficult decision. Many parents do not spend much time thinking about it; they place their children into the local school designated by where they live. Others attended a private school themselves and found that it was a beneficial experience and therefore want the same for their kids. But which is better: private schools or public schools? While there are many advantages and disadvantages to each (nothing is going to be absolutely perfect), we are going to focus on the benefits of an education in the public school system, or in other words, schools funded by the government that are for anyone to attend.
