The Japanese place a general quota of nearly 2,000 cetaceans a year for all dolphin hunts in Japan. However, Taiji, a single town, takes a large proportion of the quota. #39canimals

Relating to Bender and Herzing’s research study about mother dolphins teaching young calves to forage for food, young calves would “benefit from their parents’ knowledge” and that the idea of sponging is passed through vertical culture. https://t.co/PsuP1aLfjW #39canimals

After computing the meaning of the data gathered, it is found that the mothers chased prey longer when calves were present. Also, mothers demonstrated increased body-orienting movements under the same circumstances. #39canimals

Due to the complicated social life young calves experience at a young age, researchers believe this is the reason they are able to pass the mirror test and mark test at a younger age than that of humans and chimpanzees #39canimals

Currently, there are many problems dolphins face today. Two major problems are dolphin hunts and the dolphin entertainment industry, holding many dolphins captive. #39canimals

Deforestation can have major impacts throughout multiple ecosystems. This is one leading cause towards global warming and also negatively impacts the quality of life for wildlife.

[Shireen Turner @ShireenTurner]

The isolation of chimpanzees through deforestation can also negatively impact their populations through a decrease in social interactions with one another, shown through an 88% drop in the probability of a behavior’s occurrence. #39canimals https://t.co/ofxJazfCBa

This shows the lack of respect humans have for animals as they set up traps to hurt them. It is extremely impactful for people to inspect forests for traps as this may save a chimpanzee's life.

[Giselle Huerta @GiselleHuerta16]

Having people to constantly inspect the forest for traps such as illegal snares will reduce the amount of not only chimpanzees being caught in them but as well as other species. There have been cases where chimpanzees lose their limbs or die from the traps. #39canimals

Yes! In fact, dolphins can recognize themselves in a mirror at an earlier age than that of humans.

Researchers have found that dolphins are some of the few animals who can understand seeing their own reflection #39canimals

Rats are not protected by the Animal Welfare Act although they can still feel pain when being tested on by humans.

[Bill Chen @BillChe43677296]

This is because of the huge flaw in the Animal Welfare Act which also causes it to not work: it protects warm-blooded animals with the exception of mice, birds, and rats (Animal Welfare Institute). #39canimals

Although America is considered to have one of the best education, we are not taught well enough to protect wildlife.

[Giselle Huerta @GiselleHuerta16]

Many local communities in Africa do not have access to an education. Sanctuaries and organizations provide these communities with education, while also teaching them about chimpanzees and how to practice sustainable agriculture and conserve their local wildlife #39canimals

You make a great point as we humans negatively impact "violent" species through violent activates such as hunting and driving them out of their natural environments.

[Zulaikha Sael @zsael3]

Animals are called violent and aggressive, but ironically, we are the ones who are the most violent. Humans are the ones that hunt them down relentlessly/are the ones that drive them out of their habitats, giving them nowhere to go and limiting survival means

Peer review is a great method to grow as a writer and to help others grow.

[Deleted Acc @deletedacc124]

I completely agree. Whitespace creates much better readability!

It is horrible to see the lives of many individuals are taken simply for economical reasons.

[Giselle Huerta @GiselleHuerta16]

Hunters do not hesitate to kill chimpanzees due to the income they'll receive for the bushmeat. Not only do they decrease chimps' population, these but also increases the risks of transmitting diseases from chimpanzees into the human population #39canimals

Entertainment industries that use dolphins are very harmful for dolphins as they become aggressive and agitated in captivity and experience constant human exposure.

[Sadaf Barakzoy @SBarakzoy]

After dolphins are hunted and captured, many of them are sold into captivity. One problem that dolphins continue to face is falling victim to tourist entertainment industries #39canimals

The Taiji Dolphin Drive Hunt is the most pressing issue for dolphins as many are captured and killed to benefit the Japanese Government. #WhatIlearnedin39C

Dolphins face major issues such as being killed by humans and be captured for human. #WhatIlearnedin39C

I learned that dolphins are extremely intelligent as they come very close to human intelligence. In addition, I learned how they are very similar to humans as they teach younger generations how to hunt and use tools. #WhatIlearnedin39C

I learned about website creation as I created a Wix website in order to document my progress as a writer in Writing 39C. I created blog posts to reflect on what I was doing and for what reason. #WhatIlearnedin39C

I learned how to effectively perform research in an academic setting. This included citing properly as well as finding sources that corroborated with one another. #WhatIlearnedin39C
