The modern evolutionary theory

Article Abstract:

It took 80 years before Darwin's theory of natural selection was firmly proven with the researches of geneticists, evolutionists and naturalists. While specific points in the natural selection process continue to be proven in field and laboratory experiments, there remain problem areas, such as the insistence of geneticists to solely attribute evolution to changes in the gene, while the taxonomist/anthropologists continue to think in typological terms. Further studies are also needed to see if Darwin's theory can stand refutation.

The adaptable leopard; unfortunately it's no match for modern man

Article Abstract:

Leopards' adaptability has become the species' vulnerability. The animals do not hesitate to eat rotting flesh and will come back repeatedly to their meal, if disturbed. People have taken advantage of this by lacing carcasses with poison. Leopards are moderate in size compared to other cats, are stealthy and can live in areas as diverse as rain forests and deserts.

Native whaling in a modern world

Article Abstract:

Animal rights activists are concerned over the request of the Native American Makah tribe to be able to hunt gray whales again in the waters of the Pacific Northwest. Critics believe that the resumption of whaling is clandestinely supported by foreign governments to revive the trade.
