    An interesting article came my way this week while I was looking through my feeds. It was debating the effectiveness of the No Kill shelters at different locations in the country. To start, they pose the very interesting question of, “Have shelters failed these 'NoKill' plans or have the 'NoKill' plans failed the shelters?” That does seem to be the debate. Yes, the killing in these animal shelters needs to stop. But has this No Kill project been too much for the shelters to handle? Is there a better way that people haven’t thought of yet to stop the violence in these shelters?
    The author of the article goes on to say how successful the No Kill shelter program has been working in Philadelphia. As for the rest of the country, not so much. Then states, “Should we just give up trying to become 'NoKill?' Absolutely not! The ten basic 'NoKill' programs are a start but they're just a start…” I think this sums up everyone’s feelings. This is only a start. There needs to be more work done. With that statement though, another question is raised. What else can we do? How can we, as people, come together and have a bigger impact for the animals? What is wrong with the No Kill project right now? Things are getting better from the No Kill Advocacy Center. It is helping.
    My question for you, people of the world, is what is wrong here? What else? What next? I think that there is more. More that can be done. More ways to branch out the No Kill shelters in the country. I’m posing a challenge: What is the next step to take the No Kill shelters to an even more successful level?

I have noticed that my topic can be elaborated on.  I was told that some of it isn't as coherent as it could be and that i don't seem to show a strong enough interest in my subject as well.  The fact is, i love animals, we should work hard to preserve their existence and we need them here for things that may come up in our lives.  Animals make excellent pets of course and we should do them no harm.  I'm going to fix my posts because they weren't my best, and afterwards i'll input the contact information as instructed, which may be a fairly easy task depended on my approach and resources.

This information I found for my subject has been proven to be useful.  I chose to do this for convenience purposes and so far it’s working out to my favor.  I had to take into recognition the higher officials of my topic such as the folks that run all the information involving geographic issues no matter what they may be.

            I even found some history on animal populations on marine type creatures, which proves many of us want to make a change as well. http://www.hmapcoml.org/ 

Each of the case studies in HMAP has a team of researchers. 
There are 19 case studies around the world:

       SW African Shelf
       SE Asia 
       NW Atlantic
       SE Australia
       Baltic
       Caribbean
       Gulf of Maine Cod
       History of Nearshore Biodiversity       
       Mediterranean and Black Sea
       Mega mollusks
       New Zealand
       North Sea
       Wadden Sea
       White and Barent Sea
       World Whaling  
       Zooarchaeology: Fish Bones. 

All of these are cases that were investigated by ‘’HMAP’’ proving that many of us care for the system outside of our very own and are in fact willing to make a change.
