Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fur Facts The question is often asked is trapping cruel, and the answer from anyone who knows wildlife is unhesitatingly it is not. Agnes Laut, who is probably one of the best informed women on wild animal life in the country, has pointed out that there is less cruelty in trap ping than there is in the slaughter house. Anyone need only go into the wilds to at once realize that natural wild life is more cruel by far than the most careless and thoughtless hunter. To begin with there is hardly such a thing as natural death in the wilds. The weak fall victims to the strong. The weasel hunts the rabbit and kills indiscriminately; the fox hunts the weasel and so on through the en tire list; and if fur bearing animals did not multiply with such ter rific rapidity they would soon exterminate one another. To give an idea of the rapidity with which wild animals multiply, a number of years ago a settler in Australia, whose home had been in England, decided to have a pair of rabbits sent over to Australia as pets for his children. Previous to this time there were no rabbits in Australia and the rabbit was not a native of the soil. The pair of rabbits which this English immigrant had sent over from the old country was the beginning of the Australian Rabbit. In due time the rabbits had a litter of young. Some of the young were given to neighbor as pets for their children. Finally some of them left the barn yard and took up their home in the wilds. This was the beginning of the wild rabbit in Australia. There was no other wild life to destroy them with the result that they multiplied so rapidly that in a compara tively short number of years they overran the country. It became necessary for the Australian Government to build hundreds of miles of rabbit-proof fences to protect farms and ranches from their de predations. Their number ran into the millions and no headway seemed to be made against them. The pest, however, turned out to be a profit for the reason that their fur is valuable, the hair being used in the making of felt, most of our felt hats being made from Australian rabbit skins. The finer grades of skins are used for furriers' purposes for making low-priced furs. And are known in the trade as dyed coney.

Download or read book A Passion for Facts written by Tong Lam and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-10-29 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This fascinating book is a fundamental contribution to the global history of social science. Tong Lam demonstrates how Chinese reformers struggled to build a modern society on a foundation of facts and statistics. Their ambitions were no mere dream, but were made real in a prodigious social survey movement which aimed as much to enlighten peasants as to inform administrators.” —Theodore Porter, author of Trust in Numbers “Lam’s approach is highly original. A Passion for Facts presents an impressive host of new material from Chinese and American archives that challenges interpretations of China and Chinese exceptionalism or independent development. Lam makes a compelling argument that the techniques developed in the early twentieth century and refined over several decades have been critical to state-building in China.” —James L. Hevia, author of English Lessons: The Pedagogy of Imperialism in Nineteenth Century China “Lam supersedes the current ‘China-centered approach’ and the earlier framework that explained ‘modern China’ in light of global colonialism. He illuminates how the search for ‘facts’ empowered modern Chinese to reimagine their social and political realities in a global colonial context.” —Benjamin A. Elman, Chair, East Asian Studies Department, Princeton University

Download or read book Animalkind written by Ingrid Newkirk and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The founder and president of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk, and bestselling author Gene Stone explore the wonders of animal life with “admiration and empathy” (The New York Times Book Review) and offer tools for living more kindly toward them. In the last few decades, a wealth of new information has emerged about who animals are: astounding beings with intelligence, emotions, intricate communications networks, and myriad abilities. In Animalkind, Ingrid Newkirk and Gene Stone present these findings in a concise and awe-inspiring way, detailing a range of surprising discoveries, like that geese fall in love and stay with a partner for life, that fish “sing” underwater, and that elephants use their trunks to send subsonic signals, alerting other herds to danger miles away. Newkirk and Stone pair their tour through the astounding lives of animals with a guide to the exciting new tools that allow humans to avoid using or abusing animals as we once did. Whether it’s medicine, product testing, entertainment, clothing, or food, there are now better options to all the uses animals once served in human life. We can substitute warmer, lighter faux fleece for wool, choose vegan versions of everything from shrimp to marshmallows, reap the benefits of animal-free medical research, and scrap captive orca exhibits and elephant rides for virtual reality and animatronics. Animalkind provides a fascinating look at why our fellow living beings deserve our respect, and lays out the steps everyone can take to put this new understanding into action.
