ATTACKED!!! Few people will ever see or come in contact with a grizzly bear. But Todd Orr, a Montanan from southwest Montana, was one of those few who has. In an article from New York times by Christine Hauser called “In a Montana Bear Attack, Lessons on Hope, Survival and First Aid,” explains what Mr. Orr did for survival and first aid to get away from the angry grizzly.

high school. By now I figured out which high school students are empowered and where they stand. I have befriended some of them as students and some as their alter ego. Most of them have no clue who each other are. For example, Falcon Girl and Brown Bear. They work together as superheroes; however, they don’t know that they are friends in real life. I have been working with them for a while and by now, I think I have gained their trust. The three of us were out patrolling the city and had stopped for

a series of moles on my leg that, as a child, I would play “connect the dots” on and discovered it looked a lot like the little dipper. I also had a special connection to the Ursa Minor constellation because it is often depicted as the little bear and bears are one of my favorite animals. Ursa Minor is the 56th constellation in size and contains one of the brightest stars and most significant stars in the sky, the North Star (or Polaris). This constellation belongs to the Ursa Major family of constellations

Perseverance Perseverance is a hard task to master, but it will help you in the long run. When it comes to this you must continue to believe in yourself no matter what happens; you can’t give up. In Ben Michaelsen’s novel Touching Spirit Bear, as Cole lies near death, he creates goals that he will have to work toward. In part one of the novel Cole Matthews robs a hardware store, later on he figures out that Peter Driscal, someone who goes to his school, told the police of Cole’s actions. “‘You’re

his self-esteem. That is my question. In Touching spirit bear, by Ben Mikkelsen, Cole a punk, beats up Peter. He goes to an island to heal and does. But I’m not here to talk about that. I’m here to talk about, all the conflict that cole has. Personal conflict will affect our self-esteem. This is shown when cole gets attacked by the spirit bear. And the conflict with his Dad, and peter. First, when cole gets attacked by the spirit bear, he feels like he doesn’t really matter. In Fact, he feels

In the story “Touching Spirit Bear,” Cole Matthews doesn't want to, or even believes he has to, take the blame on anything he does. Cole Matthews, the protagonist in the story, says that everything the does is someone else's fault. There is a specific quote from page 45 in the story. It says “Cole felt no regret for having burned the supplies and the shelter. Nor did the regret hurting Peter. This was all somebody else’s fault. If it weren’t for his parents, Peter, and the stupid Healing Circle,

In touching Spirit Bear, Cole Mathews, similar to Okonkwo, is a young man who is very unsure of himself. Cole seems to get in trouble a lot for multiple different reasons.

This anger that has taken over his life, have caused him to bully other kids and commit crimes. With nobody to show him

Last month, I had the chance to visit the San Diego Zoo, and saw a lot of animals including the giant pandas. While most of the tourists would only stand for a few moments in front of the other animal, many of them linger before the two giant pandas, Baiyun and Xiaoliwu. In fact, it was the only exhibit that we had to wait in a line to see, despite the zoo not being all that busy. It’s evident that pandas are extremely popular animals, not only because of its unique fur coat color, but also because

estimate of a population growth of 132 to 1,800 is just that an estimation. As Bass stated “ bears do not sit down for a census”(Bass 2). If grizzly bears are listed there is a chance that hunters will accidently over hunt bears once again. If bears bears are delisted it will not be because the bears will be ready it will be because hunters have been persistently asking for the chance to hunt. If bears are delisted it can be years before they can be relisted and by then it may be far too late.
