Helping animals

These days, many animals are having problem with humans. Since many people don't think that animals are precious, they use animal for their benefit and for fun such as animal testing or teacup puppies. I cannot understand some people who think that animals are existing for the people. That's not true. Animals are not existing for anyone. They are just the same as us. I think people should protect animals and be more careful with animals because animals are smaller than us which means they are weaker than us. My heart is really react with animals. I cannot ignore them who are suffering right now. Even though I am young now, I really want to help them to live more comfortably. When I think about the poor animals, I pray for them. I wish there is non of animals is sad. So, as working with this blog, I will post some animal protesting things to let you know more about suffering animals in the world.

Cat's body language

 

Cat's body language

Cats cannot talk like a human, but they have a way to communicate with each others or to us. Sometimes, it is hard to catch out their language because they seem so aggressive and sensitive. Actually, they always give us a signal of communication by their body. Don't be afraid to talk with them. If you are afraid them, they will afraid you too!

Dog's body

Dog's body

   Nose

Nose is an important communication way for dog. Dog can awake to something by a sensitive nose. Comparing with a huma who has 5 million olfactory nerves, dog has 2-3 billoin olfactory nerves. Dogs smell a food before they eat it. Also, their nose is always wet. If nose is not wet, it probably will get sick.

   Ears

Ears are also well develped than human. They can hear a small sound that human cannot hear it.

 

   Eyes

Eyes are the weakest part of the body. They can only distinguish 2-3 colors. However, dynamic visual acuity is well develpoed, which is for seeing a moving object. So dog can hunt easily, even it is far from the sight.

 

   Tail

Tail is a great way to express emotion as human's face. Also, tail is important to make a body balance.

 

 

Temperature

_ Average temerature is 98.6℉ to 102.2℉. So, dogs are weak in summer.

 

 

The most graceful dog, Papillon

 

 

Papillon

Do you know why this little dog called Papillon? Because its ears look like a butterfly, and Papilon means butterfly in French. It has beautiful and lovely appearance. In the past, it was just a house dog but it got popular because of its grace appearance. So many noblewomen loved it to have. Even they draw Paptillon on their portraits. I can see how much they loved Papillon. 

Although it has long and luxuriant hair, hair doesn't fall out a lot. So it is good to raise in house. Papillon has a small frame and thin bones, but it is resistant to cold and it doesn't get sick easily.

 

 

 

By the way, Papillon is the eighth of the most intelligent dog in the world. Papillon is clever and has good judgment. It is also brave. When Papillon sees injustice thing, it cannot stay quiet. It barks loudly a lot. Papillon amuses people by its characters of cheerful and lively. However, if you raise Papillon with too much love, Papillon will think he is the super star, so he can be a stubborn dog. So be careful to raise him with a proper way.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 



Problem of animal dyeing

These days, many people dye their pets for looking more cute and pretty. At first, when I saw a puppy with pink dyeing on her cheeks, I thought it was so cute. But then, when I heard some bad things about dyeing on animals, I changed my mind. Someone told me that animal dyeing is a part of animal abuse. Since people don't care about their pets' mind, and just do whatever they want to do on their pet. Animal dyeing which is only for amusing our eyes, I don't think that animal can also amuse it. There is a study about people who had hair dyeing a lot, there are also a lot of dye in their brain. Even thought human gets sick from dyeing, what about a little animal? Do you think that they can feel pain? Yes,  absolutely they can feel pain. They cannot even resist to their owner. I'm sorry for those animals who are suffering from dyeing. I wish people don't dye their animals any more. Animals are not our toys.

 

Yorkshire Terrier

Yorkshire Terrier 

Yorkshire Terrier is a small dog breed of terrier type. Country of origin is England. In 19th century, Yorkshire Terrier was raised for catching rats in the poor houses in the county of Yorkshire. Yorkshire Terrier's hair is black and gold when it was born. Then it turns to light brown which is so beautiful. Yorkshire Terrier has soft hair like a silk and it is covered all over the body. In the past, Yorkshire Terrier was really popular for the upper class of European because of its beautiful hair. It has two nicknames which are "Yorkie," and "moving jewel."

Yorkshire Terrier has strong wariness and desire for winning. Yorkshire Terrier is bold and it barks a lot. Although Yorkshire Terrier is lively and friendly when it is with his owner, it gets loneliness easily if he is alone. So, please don't leave him alone for a long time.

I have raised Yorkshire Terrier since when I was 9 years old. He is almost 10 years now. I remember the first time when he came our home, he was really small like a palm size. He is so lovely and adorable dog! I've been with him all my childhood and still now. He is my best friend ever, and I cannot imagine my life without him.

Extinction Animals in South America

 

 

Extinction Animals in South America

1. American cheetah (Miracinonyx)
Extinction Date : 11000B.C
Range : Northern North America
An American cheetah's appearance and body type bring up the image of an African cheetah, but actually it is more related with a puma. This cheetah has a slim and long body type which means his body is appropriate for running. He can run 100km/h like modern cheetah. Although he can hunt easily, he runs with his whole body only for a short distance.

2. Dire wolf (canis dirus)
Extinction Date : 8000B.C
Range : North America
Dire wolf is much more bigger than the Gray wolf, which is the biggest existing wolf. Dire wolves are almost 2 meters long, and weight is about 100kg. The teeth are thick and the muzzle is wide, so it can chew and eat bones as today's hyena. However, the brain is ironically smaller than the head. So this wolf has low intelligence.
