Open season in Sudan as trophy hunters flock to shoot rare ibex

 

I’ve read an article about hunting on endangered spieces in Sudan. Environmentalists fear the endangered Nubian ibex in Sudan as Westerners sold hunting permits. Many people published pictures with body of rare Nubian ibex which angered the Sudanese who fiercely fight for wildlife. The Nubian ibex is considered extremely rare in Sudan and its population is classified as really vulnerable.

I agree with Mohamed al -Tayeb, a Sudanese singer and wildlife campaigner, who thinks that Sudanese law has to change. It will not be easy, considering that in this country the last word belongs to those who have money. But the number of these animals is frighteningly small, so we should protect them at all costs. Also in my opinion hunting of any kind of animals should be completely banned and punishments for breaking the law should be stricter. It is cruel entertainment that should no longer be practiced nowadays.

    I'm not sure protecting the ibex is top priority in Sudan, which is overwhelmed with drought, famine and terrorism.

Underwater pyramid in the Azores

Obraz
  At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, a large pyramid-shape was found. The top of the pyramid is 40 meters deep and 60 meters high and covers an area of ​​8,000 m2. The underwater pyramid was discovered by a local angler in September this year during one of his trips. This angler claims that the pyramid must have been built with human hands and it may be the mythical Atlantis. However, not everyone is convinced that the find from the Azores is a pyramid. Skeptics that there is a chance that this is just an underwater volcanic hill, not a residual Atlantean civilization. (it’s because Azores are archipelago of nine volcanic islands and that’s why people are not convinced about the theory of underwater city)    https://curiosmos.com/is-there-a-20000-year-old-underwater-pyramid-in-the-atlantic-ocean/

Observation 6

 I’ve read an article about domestic violence. The text talked about the maltreatment of man against women and the passivity of the police. It sounds pretty horryfing. Maybe the number of women who were murdered because of their partners is not high, but why is it not dropping? Why the police is doing literally nothing event they have evidence of violence? Also a creepy fact is that the punishments for doing such a thing are really mild and most of the perpetrators do not even receive them. The article mentions a woman who was killed by her husband while sleeping. Before that situation the neighbors dialled for help but the police did nothing and it was the main reason why that woman died. Because of ignorance and passivity. What else we can do when even someone like police officers do not care about our safety? Maybe not to have any relationships or carry a knife whenever we are surrounded by other people? It sounds ridiculous but I have no better idea how to be safe on our own

Soap and viruses- Is social distancing that we all have to practise now is difficult or easy for you?

For me social distancing is a little bit difficult, because I don't have any kind of physical contact with somebody in my age. Of course staying at home for over a dozen days was really great, but when the prohibitions appeared that we can't go out and meet friends, it became harder. Videochats and online lessons it's not the same as face to face meeting. Although we recently had an Easter, and we couldn't go to our families, because of this virus. That's why for me and for most people staying at home is very hard.
