In Humbolt County, California in 1958, a large footprint was found at a construction site by Jerry Crew, a bulldozer operator. In the first story about the incident, "the tracks of old Big Foot" were mentioned in the first sentence. This is the first example of the term Bigfoot used in print. The early writers of the Bigfoot were unaware of the stories of the Sasquatch which had been popular in Canada since the 1920's. However, as more research was done the stories of the Sasquatch were found, and it was determined that the Sasquatch and Bigfoot were in fact the same creature.

This “real” T. rex “was not the great predator who marauded through primordial landscapes but rather a slow, putzy scavenger that poked around the Cretaceous countryside in search of maggoty carrion” (Hitt, 109). And we’re not just taking this person’s word for it either, he has plenty of substantial evidence to back this theory up such as the physical aspects that this dinosaur has. So it should be rather easy for us to switch our way of thinking given the sound evidence that is given to us. But we don’t. We want to hold onto our previous depiction of the T. rex; fearless, powerful, terrifying.

The Arctic Small Tool Tradition, also known as Pre-Dorset, is a circumpolar cultural development which probably originated in Siberia. The oldest sites in North America appear suddenly on the west coast of Alaska about 4,000 years ago. Similarities to the Plano and Northwest micro blade traditions, as well as to Siberian Mesolithic blade technologies have caused considerable debate over origins (Irving 1962; Laughlin 1962, MacNeish 1964; Damas 1969). The technology bears no resemblance to the complexes which were previously present in the coastal regions of Alaska. The warming trend which was still evident at this time may have assisted in the rapid movement of people across the High Arctic.
At first, he talks about how different it is to observe the whales rove in the wild comparing to those he had seen in the Vancouver Public Aquarium. He wonders if a wild animal imprisoned in a small pool can ever be considered “happy”. Continually he discusses the use of primate, which he thinks is most controversial. Here he makes the first quotation from the famous chimpanzee expert, Jane Goodall, to support his arguments and make the essay more convincing. Goodall describes the horrible conditions that the chimpanzees are enduring in laboratories.
Ronnie Donnie Andy Batto November 2nd, 2011 Ronnie Donnie Lavesque, the most ostracized child you could ever see. In reality he was very nice kid who would love to socialize but he had some very odd hobbies. He knew that people would not understand his hobbies, but he made a choice early in life that he valued who he was and what he did over what people thought of him. You are probably thinking how odd could his hobbies be? Some of his hobbies are playing with toads and stamp collecting, but by far the weirdest hobby was collecting dead ravens.
