This is a problem that big corporation farms do not have because they can just hire someone to have that job of filling out the paper work. The question which the movie presents is why the USDA is trying to make it so hard for small farmers to be efficient and prosper. The first story in the movie is about a family who raised sheep in Vermont. The USDA monitored their farm for months which in the process spent more than $1 million dollars. Finally one day they came and ceased the animals from the farm and took them out to Iowa and killed the sheep for a disease that to this day does not exist.
Overpopulation of deer results in lack of food for the deer. The starving animals migrate toward domestic garden crops. Deer are not afraid to roam into suburban neighborhoods if there is evidence of food. It not only ruins homeowner’s crops, but it also places danger on families and their children playing outside. Taylor and Francis state: “Holsworth (1973) reported the results of a controlled hunt on the Griffith Island where the deer population was reduced from about 300 to 100 during eight hunting trips between October 1962 and April 1968 (Taylor and Francis 1).” Hunting provides incomparably healthier meat than the average processed meat.
The two most destructive threats they pose are to the existence of the native Red Squirrel and the health of woodlands that define the nation (Huxley 2003). Grey squirrels are outcompeting the red squirrel for food and shelter, making it very difficult for the red squirrel to continue to flourish and reproduce in their native ecosystem (Wauters et al. 2001). As a result, their population is decreasing due to lack of nourishment and sustainable shelter. Grey squirrels are also common carriers of the pox virus, which is nonhazardous to them, but deadly to the red squirrel (Williams et al.

Some of the main threats to the survival of this species are: Forest fires Inbreeding Development Lack of political commitment Illegal poaching is another major cause for concern. Amur leopards are targeted for their striking, spotted coat, which can sell for up to $1,000 in parts of southeastern Russia. With less than 40 individuals remaining in the wild, the death of one leopard can have severe consequences for the species as a whole.
“Why do you got to get killed? You ain’t so little as mice. I didn’t bounce you hard. The death of the puppy is an accident since Lennie is not able to measure or control his strength, killing the puppy unintentionally. Lennie being unable to measure his strength is one reason to why other deaths throughout the story occur.
Geraldine Brooks explores how ignorance, superstition and hysteria can be as fatal as any plague within her novel ‘Year of Wonders’. During the trying year of the plague superstition, ignorance, and hysteria took over the village, causing people to make irrational accusations, decisions and behave immorally, turning against each other. Brooks explores how the plague acts as a catalyst effecting each of the villagers differently on a physical and emotional level. The plague is defined as a large amount of insects or animals infesting a place causing damage, within the novel we see the villagers become these animals. Fear and anguish brought out some of the worst qualities in the villagers causing them to turn against one another creating anger, conflict and damage unto one another.

It’s been found the entire process, from the auctions to death, are very inhumane. Undercover films have been made showing the actual process of horse slaughter. The Doris Day Animal League site states, “Callous treatment at the slaughterhouse often results in prolonged suffering. Panicked horses are often prodded and beaten off the truck and into the kill-chute.
Lot’s wife, as noted in the text, perishes, because she does not trust and obey. These stories act as corrective tales to guide behavior. Popular stories might include folk tales, fairy tales, fables, etc. For example, in Aesop’s “The Shepherd Boy and the Wolf” (popularly known as “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”), the boy told the same lie three or four times about a wolf killing the sheep. When a wolf did threaten the lives of the sheep, no one believed him.
