Hi everyone! I’m currently researching different issues regarding animal science & here to become part of a bigger platform and share these problems! 🐬

[Dolphin Research Ctr @DolphinResearch]

Today on #WorldOceansDay, why not commit to stop using plastic straws? When at a restaurant, ask them not to bring you a straw. Take your own, made of reusable materials. It's an easy, positive step you can take to help the environment!

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

I completely agree with this, we shouldn't use them for our own benefit, its not right. #39canimals

[David Huang @DavidHu29052963]

Animals deserve to be treated humanely in physical, social and mental care. We should really make an effort to reduce animal entertainment and improve zoo management.#39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

We complained about not being able to go out because of quarantine, now let's imagine how holding these chimps captive must be. They don't deserve this #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

Poaching just harms our enviornment, we need to stop. #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

Changing little things in our life like no longer using plastic straws, and starting to use refillable bottles can make a huge difference #39canimals

[Sea Otters @SeaotterOtters]

"Something people can do is to reduce the amounts of single-use plastic they generate. Single-use plastics are the majority of plastics found in the ocean" Plastics contaminate the water for all living animals and need to be kept out of the ocean #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

I watched the film "A Plastic Ocean" and it's crazy to see how much plastic and trash goes into the ocean in just a small amount of time, we need to change the way we do things. #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

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

It's important to keep up with what is going on around us. There are many advocates and people trying to make a change. We have the ability to use our voices and advocate for animal rights. #WhatIlearnedin39c

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

Feel free to look at my porfolio and get a better understanding of everything I learned and ways in which we could help animals #WhatIlearnedin39c

I have become more aware of the environment and learned that everything WE do impacts other species and many of the times they're impacted negatively. #WhatIlearnedin39c

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

39C taught me that when writing it's important to include multi-modality/ figures/ tables. The images and figures are just as important as the writing and can be a way of sharing more information. #WhatIlearnedin39c

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

This class taught me a way to annotate articles and be able to get the most valuable information. By splitting up each section the annotation process is much more beneficial. #WhatIlearnedin39c

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

The use of navy sonar is used when Vessels are trying to detect submarines; however, in the process of trying to find these submarines they emit low frequency sounds which has a negative effect on the animals and harms their ears and lungs #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

"Article 192 stated that 'we must protect and preserve the marine environment,' which led to Article 30 where it gave the state permission to make warships leave the sea immediately if they were causing any type of harm to marine animals" #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

A solution to reducing the noise levels in oceans starts with us by simply "soft-starting" vessels which can serve as a warning to cetaceans. #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

"Out of 55 marine animal species that suffer from noise pollution, 24 of those species are prone to having the greatest amounts of detrimental effects which is 43% of the species suffering from these noises" #39canimals

[sheccidm @sheccidm2]

"The loud noise emitted can damage their ears, body tissue, or just flat out kill them, which can have an effect on the dolphin population, as sometimes these animals are killed when they’re pregnant," are some of the problems I discussed! #39canimals

[Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC) @whalesorg]

#ClimateChange could have big consequences for a recently discovered population of blue #whales in #NewZealand who are genetically distinct from those of the Pacific & Southern oceans. The more we learn about them, the more we can help protect them 🤞🐋💙> https://t.co/6I9Bt2tZyd
