Mammals

Feature Writer: Chris McLaughlin
Welcome to Mammals at Suite 101!
This is the place to learn about wild and domestic mammals, their habitats, histories, and intelligence. Our goal is to bring you closer to understanding the undeniable impact mammals have on our lives.
We'll talk about wild mammal rehabilitation, wildlife, preserves, endangered species, caring for wild mammals in captivity, domestic livestock, and livestock care.
Visitors can also learn about philosophical issues involving mammals, animals and industry, animal attacks and society, the ethics of hunting and poaching, and animals in entertainment. We want you to leave here feeling curious, sympathetic, and finally, protective of the mammals on our earth.
I'd happy talk about your favorite mammal topics - just e-mail your questions and comments
or visit my blog.
