Wildlife Coalition Pressures U.S. to List African Lions as Endangered by Renee Evans
During these 60 years the number of African lions has decreased, and now there are only 40,000. This minority has several threats and that is why African lions are in danger. But they are not on the list of protected animals and several animal protection groups are trying to change that. So those interest groups have asked the federal Interior Department to put the lions on the mention list. Many animal protection groups want you to know that these animals are in danger of extension.
An Endangered Snake Lives on a Golf Course, But Maybe Not for Long By Nikki Gloudeman
The Shark Park Golf is a popular spot for local golfers, but it also popular spot for the devastation of sensitive wetlands and endangered species. Now nearly 80 years after it opened environmental groups have stood up to say, "Enough is enough." Six conservation groups filed a lawsuit against the city San Francisco for its careless preservation of the course. What is ironic is that the city, agreed to invest millions into protecting and preserving the park. Sadly, the city has not lived up its promise for preservation.
Endangered Sea Turtles to Be Killed in Research Lab Experiment By: Laura Goldman
This spring, seven endangered green sea turtles in a University of British Columbia research lab will be killed in order to determine why turtles die when they get caught in trawl nets. Bill Milsom, head of the university’s zoology department, told the Vancouver Sun that it is necessary to kill the turtles to help figure out how not to kill the turtles. A UBC insider told to Stop UBC Animal Research, and made a group campaigning to end experimentation on animals at the university. "At a time when there are all sorts of efforts to save these animals, and they're being hit by oil spills and beach development, UBC is killing them," Brian Vincent, the group’s spokesman, told the Vancouver Sun. Carin Zellerman made a petition to the UBC president, Stephen J tope, to spare the 7 turtles lives, because it isn’t hard to know why mortality rate in trawl nets turtles. "They drown as they are unable to surface to breathe," Zellerman writes. "If it's a matter of studying their physiology, this can be accomplished by obtaining tissue from (already) Dead Sea turtles. If it's a matter of understanding at what level trawl nets should be placed in order to prevent catching turtles, statistics that should be obtained directly from the fishermen using the trawl nets." It makes no sense to kill these endangered turtles in the name of research.
13-Year-Old Throat Cancer Patient Will Die Without Humanitarian Parole by Alonso Chehade • March 09, 2011 Arsen Mkrtchyan a 13 year old boy that has a fatal type of throat cancer that causes recurring tumors to form since he was 4 years old has gone through 96 surgeries while doctors keep looking for a long term solution to save his life. After doctors had told his mother that there was nothing they could do, some doctors in Denver at Presbyterian/St. Luke’s Hospital learned about Arsens’ story and volunteered since then their services and the hospital donated care. Now he is waiting for his 97th surgery, but his medical visa expired and US Immigration denied him another one. Now the boy’s life depends on a request for Humanitarian Parole, which would allow him to stay in United States until he gets out of danger. Alonso Chehade requestes the readers to ask USCIS to grant Arsen Humanitarian Parole because he deserves the chance to live.

PETA Looks to Australian Prime Minister to End Cruel Mulesing Practices By Annie Hartnett
Farmer are so cruel with sheep doing mulesing to prevent flystrike knowing that there are better ways to do it. PETA, the animal activists showed up in the hopes that Gillard will end the cruel practice of mulesing in Australia.They make musleing and make suffer them because is without anesthesia and there are more human methods to prevent a flystrike,PETA is opposed to mulesing because of that. PETA has recently written 1,500 letters to Australian sheep farmers suggesting switching to breeds of sheep better suited to the Australian climate; sheep that wouldn't have to be mulesed because in australia most are merino sheep and this is a breed that is particularly susceptible to this desease. These mulesing protests are a concern that Prime Minister Gillard should take very seriously, as a boycott on Australian wool would be very bad for the country's economy.Now they prefer to buy to countries not envolve in mulesing.The AWI has said they intend to end mulesing in the future, but has refused to commit to a time frame. They've claimed that they're working on a chemical alternative to mulesing, or that they're stalling because this year has been the worst flystrike outbreak in recent memory.
An Endangered Snake Lives on a Golf Course, But Maybe Not for Long by Nikki Gloudeman • March 09, 2011 Since its debut in 1932, the Shark Park Golf Course has been a popular spot for local golfers to tee up. Unfortunately, it has also been a popular spot for the devastation of sensitive wetlands and endangered species. In particular, environments have taken issue with the city's efforts to ease flooding by draining adjacent ponds, which provide habitat for the endangered San Francisco garter snake and threatened red-legged frog. That action, the groups allege, is an outright violation of the Endangered Species Act. What's ironic is that just a couple years ago, the city agreed to invest millions into protecting and preserving the park As the Center for Biological Diversity puts it, "We’re calling on the city to cease harming endangered species, restore Sharp Park to its natural state as a coastal wetland, and provide more diverse recreational opportunities for the public at the site."

Five Changes Bob Bradley Should Make for the Paraguay Match By: John Godfrey
The U.S. soccer team delivered a good performance and gained a solid result against Argentina last Saturday. Some of the changes or variables the coach bob Bradley should consider to do in this gave are going to be. He needs to consider putting Juan Pablo Agudelo in the starting lineup, trying a different formation in this case it would be a 4-3-3 formation. Next he could do is to create an strategic attacking midfielder. The forth recommendation they do to the coach is to play two fullbacks who can push forward, and last is to put the other goalkeeper to defend the teams field. These five mencionate things can be important in the realize of this game and of course they would be able to win the match.
