"Individual acts that can help end the dog meat trade include adopting, fostering, sponsoring, volunteering and donating." #EndDogMeatTrade #39canimals

“In South Korea, dogs are killed by electrocution; elsewhere, they are usually bludgeoned, hanged or more rarely, boiled alive” #39canimals https://t.co/jyIpJKiHco

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

"The consumption of dogs is considered to bring good luck and health (Turner). It is also believed that the more abuse and torture a dog is put through, the more tender the meat and more luck it will bring." #EndDogMeatTrade #39canimals

“There is evidence that there is a high concentration of rabies positive dogs in slaughterhouses, restaurants and markets; posing a significant risk to human health” (ACPA). #39canimals https://t.co/qJvjM7FSn6

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

"Since the dogs are abused, tortured and forced together in small containers and/or cages, they are scarred, dehydrated, starved and in poor health conditions that the donations that are given are essential for their lives. " #39canimals https://t.co/FfzU3TwIhy

Help the elephants

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Elephants are one of my favorite animals and to think the population is decreasing is sad

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

I agree. I had not seen social media as a place for academia

[claudey @ClaudeYan4]

Before taking this class, I had no idea about the potency of social media campaigning. After participating in the class's SMC, I was convinced of the infinite potential of social media and the internet #WhatIlearnedin39C

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

From reading "Why Birds Matter", I learned that birds are more intelligent than they are given credit. Bird brain should be a good thing instead of being an insult #WhatIlearnedin39C

fMRI studies have shown that dogs respond to certain stimuli like humans

[Sarah David @imsarahdavid]

I learned that fMRI studies are being conducted to advance research in the field of canine science! #caninescience #WhatIlearnedin39C #39canimals

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Too many dogs without a home. It is better to adopt than shop for a pet

[Anh Nguyen @AnhNguyen1827]

Unadopted dogs and rescued mill dogs lead to dog overpopulation and overcrowded animal shelters. Each year, around 1.2 million dogs are euthanized to create more space. #39canimals

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

I have heard of aquaculture and few places have started doing it I believe

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Having a website as a portfolio has helped me see the progress that has been accomplished throughout the quarter #WhatIlearnedin39C

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Because of "bushmeat" markets, the population of wild animals are decreasing #39canimals

[Sean Higuchi @HiguchiSean]

These "bushmeat" markets must be prosecuted! There is a reason that these animals are under protection and if sales of their meat are found they should be held accountable.

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Protect the animals #39canimals

[Sean Higuchi @HiguchiSean]

Great apes are currently under lock down! The corona virus does not only affect us but apes too. The danger that these diseases pose us pose an even bigger threat to chimpanzees whose immune systems have not been exposed to these viral infections.

Cleaning the beaches keep the animals safe #39canimals

[Sea Otters @SeaotterOtters]

"Partaking in beach clean-ups is a way people can be proactive and make sure the waters where sea otters and other marine mammals are living in are not getting polluted."
Take a look at the image to see which pieces of trash are commonly found #39canimals

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

Poaching needs to stop as it effects more than just the animal #39canimals

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

@kira_kubo Bees are essential to our lives. I can't believe that if bees go extinct, many animals and humans will die as well

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

I learned that twitter can be a good place to start researching certain topics #WhatIlearnedin39C

[Emily Sarceno @m_sarceno]

I learned that doing peer reviews help me with my work when I struggle on what to right #WhatIlearnedin39C
