Nature and Nation: Terriers
http://natureandnation.blogspot.com/2010/11/terriers.html
Saturday, 16 October 2010. Terrier by Stephen Parker. The dogs like to take it in turns to run behind the bushes and pretend not to see or hear their master, which annoys him, but only for the short while until they come trotting back, all innocent looking, when his hard face breaks into an indulgent smile. The stuff of nightmares, indeed, but this is exactly what we have done to our poor mutts. Do they complain? I resolved to study the different types of terriers, so that when one day I'm in a position ...

Nature and Nation: Why are they there?
http://natureandnation.blogspot.com/2010/11/why-are-they-there.html
Tuesday, 12 October 2010. Why are they there? Linda Norgrove, 1974-2010. The full facts surrounding the tragedy of 36-year-old Scottish aid worker Linda Norgrove, abducted in Afghanistan's Kunar province and killed during a rescue attempt last Friday night by US special forces, have yet to emerge. That the US military were willing to mount such a dangerous operation to try and rescue her tells us something about how potentially damaging such kidnappings are to coalition public relations. Both western aid...

The man currently awaits sentencing whilst the dog, a Staffordshire bull terrier, has been taken into the care of the RSPCA, who are seeking a new home for him. There have been many similarly cruel and incomprehensible attacks on animals recently:. There are many countries in the uncivilized world whe...

http://natureandnation.blogspot.com/2010/11/return-of-british-wolf.html

By the end of the nineteenth century, the European grey wolf ( Canis lupus lupus. Of Norse mythology is a huge, monstrous wolf.

Nature and Nation: Lions led by donkeys
http://natureandnation.blogspot.com/2009/11/perhaps-it-is-indication-of-how.html
Saturday, 7 November 2009. Lions led by donkeys. Perhaps it is an indication of how emotionally frozen we have become in this age of immorality and mayhem that we are rarely moved by the things we see in newspapers. Even the most sensitive individuals. It seems, become desensitized to continual barrages of appalling news. In my ignorance, I had not realized that. The gunning down earlier this week of five British soldiers at. From Arab countries, or from Islamic ghettoes in western Europe. A new survey by.
