. Conclusions Badgers are a highly vulnerable species and are implicated within the spread of TB. Their ecology makes them an easy mammalian vector species for the transmission of disease, e.g. Bovine tuberculosis. Considering that a national TB eradication program was first initiated in 1954 and remains a problem today shows that removal or culling methods have yet to be proven successful. Many studies conclude that widespread badger removal is not a viable strategy for a long-term control of tuberculosis
The animal that I chose to research was the Honey Badger. The scientific name of the Honey Badger is Mellivora capensis and it is in the animal class Mammalia. An interesting fact about the Honey Badger would be that they have a very powerful bite. Their bite is so strong, that Honey Badgers can chomp down with enough force to break the shell of a tortoise. The Honey Badger is a fearless, and very interesting animal. All animals have to develop and form different structures in their bodies to
One of the Honey Badger’s most impressive weapons is not physical at all. The Honey Badger has developed incredible behavior variations when it comes to learning ability. This behavioral variation stems from the animals large brain to body size ratio. Their large brains have resulted in an incredible intelligence for sophisticated planning, tool use, and strategy. This provides the Honey Badger with an upper hand in the harsh and predator filled environment, which they live for both protecting themselves

Justice, freedom, righteousness, when we think of these words we don't think of what makes them, no not the definition, the true meaning. Something noble and honorable, in our culture we think of doing the right thing, being virtuous. What exactly is the "right" thing. What can be considered virtuous? Human kind has struggled with these questions since the beginning of time. In fact, the Wart finds out that every species has struggled with the very same universal riddles. Our story begins with the
being a part of a whole idea on how a leader should act. He must piece together these ideas for the definitive way he should rule as king. In order to teach Wart, Merlin transforms him into several different forms, a fish, hawk, ant, goose and a badger. "‘I wish I was a fish,' said the Wart." (p.45) At that, Wart's first transformation plunged him and Merlin into the castle's moat. They proceeded to meet the largest fish in the moat, who is the ruler. This fish took what he wanted because of his

Wart learns from Mr. P that mind power is nothing, from the wild goose he learns freedom, and the badger teaches him to accept what you have. When Wart is transformed into a fish he meets the master of the moat, Mr. P. When Wart accosted Mr. P he sensed

Life's Lessons in The Once and Future King "The best thing for being sad," replied Merlyn, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honor trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then -- to learn

with one other junior boy, to be a primary delegate to attend Badger Boys State, a week long youth program at Ripon College in Ripon, Wisconsin that brings more than eight hundred and fifty boys together to learn about leadership and the United States Government. Although only one week of my life, I can confidently say that Badger Boys State is one of the best and most significant experiences I have ever had. The main point of Badger Boys State was to learn about how the United States Government
In Badger’s article, he organizes Roosevelt’s New Deal into four distinct parts, each with a central focus. Badger first emphasizes Roosevelt’s lack of organization going into his famous first hundred days of office, evidenced by his parlous venture in “recapitalization through the Reconstruction Finance Corporation buying preferred stock” in order to solve the banking crisis. Although not mentioned in the document, many of Roosevelt’s advisors held firm views that the Great Depression was largely
For our observation exercise, my partner and I decided to visit the Badger Market in the Medical Sciences building from 12-1pm. From just observing on the sidelines, we were able to pick up on social norms and identify the culture of the people that visited that market. We noticed that there were a lot of students coming into the market to get lunch and either leaving or coming to sit down. For the students that did sit down, we noticed that they all decided to sit at different tables from one another
Becoming a Badger has always been my goal. The University of Wisconsin-Madison is highly ranked in academics, has a tremendous amount of student clubs and organizations, and is located in the beautiful city of Madison. Together, I believe the opportunities are endless. Madison’s educational program excels in variety, so selecting only one major is arduous. I am interested in majoring in Kinesiology or Biology, and ultimately obtaining my Physical Therapy degree at UW-Madison. When admitted, I would

community. Living in my small town, I have learned that teamwork is a great skill that can benefit all aspects of life. Being a Badger the next four years would aid in the expansion of my own knowledge, and broaden the minds of others around me. Some ways I could become a part of the UW community is by joining the Women's Club Volleyball Team, Model United Nations, and through Badger Volunteers. Throughout my high school experience, I was able to join my school's varsity volleyball program. The skills
