Hi! I'm a student as UCSC using this account to look into animal research and issues relating to wildlife. #39canimals

people often forget that apes are very important keystone species #39canimals

[David Lin Yi Lu @DavidLinYiLu1]

All this advocacy is nice, but why bother saving the apes from a utility standpoint? Well, hear me out. They play a vital role in keeping the balance of the Central African rainforest which ends up impacting all of us. #39canimals

this is a great way to understand elephant issues ! #39canimals

[Bella Souza @isouzauci]

#39canimals Check out this infographic that summarizes that problems elephants face, as well as how we can all help!

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

this was a very informative video! #39canimals

What is Speciesism? Richard Ryder uses the term "speciesism" to argue that if human beings preserve themselves and prioritize other species, then they should be presenting intelligence with an equity insight to the animals. #39canimals

protecting land is a solution I'm researching as well! It would benefit a variety of animals #39canimals

[Caitlin @CaitlinWR39C]

A direct and more immediate change can be made especially through protecting the land that giraffes use and cooperating with the people in and around it. #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

applying pressure to governments and big corporations will help us protect land that chimpanzees need to thrive on. Protected areas means they can live in the wild how they are supposed to and means human interaction will be extremely limited to prevent poachers #39canimals

Reading my classmate's drafts has taught me that peer reviews benefit both parties. They're good for givng advice and great for reflecting on your own work #WhatIlearnedin39C

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

Reading so many chimpanzee studies has taught me that citing other sources really adds to how reliable you come off. It shows that you went the extra mile to ensure accurate information #WhatIlearnedin39C

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

Deforestation is an issue that affects not only us but the biodiversity there as well. Sure we might be losing an ecosystem but apes et. al. are losing their homes #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

I learned so much about how apes communicate with each other and how we are a lot more similar to them than we care to notice #WhatIlearnedin39C

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

wow such a cool video ! #39canimals

[Rebecca Nguyen @rebeccaWR39C]

CROWS ARE SMARTER THAN YOU THINK #39Canimals

so sad but so cool how much us humans relate to animals #39canimals

[Dayana Sheinin @DayanaSheinin7]

#39canimals Being away from their families, dolphins tend to become depressed as a result of “Boredom, lack of stimulation, stress, depression, or any number of other psychological states” (IDA). https://t.co/3KhL1iUe42

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

I think we often overlook how endangered different birds are #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

save the elephants! #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

this is a great infographic to reflect on how reliable you can really be to your pets #39canimals

[Marley Standard @MarleyStandard]

Make sure you have the proper resources before getting a new puppy! #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

doing research on how animals interact is a great way to reflect on ourselves #39canimals

[Some Tired Student @meaders_zoi]

the social world is very interesting and ever-changing the best way to study our own social patterns is to understand others #39canimals https://t.co/0vd4kdrpFf

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

many organizations can be found that are taking steps towards preserving the chimpanzee population. they vary from keeping chimpanzees in sanctuaries for their safety to having groups that focus on proposing action plans to the government #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

to stop chimpanzee endangerment, spreading awareness is the first big step! #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

Chimpanzee's are being over-hunted for many unethical reasons such as for bushmeat, for land, and for entertainment purposes #39canimals

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

I've learned how to make my content more credible by using articles found on google scholar, not just ones found on regular google #WhatIlearnedin39C

[MA.Itzel Ibarra @maitzeli]

This quarter I learned so much about how to properly structure a research essay. Being organized is key to understanding what is being said. #WhatIlearnedin39C
