So many animals, so little time!
Animal overpopulation is a epidemic that is occurring in the world right now. It is when animals continue to procreate even though they cannot realistically have a beneficial life. I do not really understand how to interpret because the sentence is a fragment and I cannot give two examples because I am not quite sure what is being asked. Society does not see animal overpopulation they do not think about the repercussions of having an animal that has not been "fixed." With the shelter having every animal fixed helps the population of animals but they cannot help all the animals that come in. If there was a way to educate pet owners that adopt from other area in the benefits of having your animal fixed could help the overall pet population issue.

There is a saying, "Knowledge is power." I agree that educating pet owner's is a much needed aspect in helping with overpopulation. I think it would be beneficial to every prospective pet owner to take a walk through the shelter and see the consequences of irresponsible pet ownership.
ReplyDeleteLove your image of Rob! It reminds me of Maggie as a pup. :)
I would like for you to write this post so that someone who is not in the course could understand it. Hopefully I can clarify the "interpret" question, but remember, you can always email me if you have any questions.
ReplyDelete"Based on what you observed and learned in this course, what does animal overpopulation mean to you? Give two examples." The question is asking what you have learned about animal overpopulation and to provide two examples from your experiences.
Also, animals (unlike humans) do not choose to procreate. They do so based on instinct (or sometimes forced breeding with human intervention). With that in mind, does that change your ideas on what animal overpopulation is all about?
Strong photographic examples.
