Dead Alive, Dead Outside, Alive Inside” “
24683_U01.qxd 11/15/04 12:53 PM Page 1 Introduction “Dead alive, dead outside, alive inside” “In my thinking, I see that people forgot me.” Catarina said this to me as she sat peddling an old exercise bicycle and holding a doll. This woman of kind manners, with a piercing gaze, was in her early thirties; her speech was lightly slurred. I first met Catarina in March 1997, in southern Brazil at a place called Vita. I remember asking myself: where on earth does she think she is going on this bicycle? Vita is the end- point. Like many others, Catarina had been left there to die. Vita, which means “life” in Latin, is an asylum in Porto Alegre, a com- paratively well-off city of some two million people. Vita was founded in 1987 by Zé das Drogas, a former street kid and drug dealer. After his conversion to Pentecostalism, Zé had a vision in which the Spirit told him to open an institution where people like him could find God and regenerate their lives. Zé and his religious friends squatted on private property near downtown, where they began a makeshift rehabilitation center for drug addicts and al- coholics. Soon, however, the scope of Vita’s mission began to widen. An in- creasing number of people who had been cut off from family life—the men- tally ill and the sick, the unemployed and the homeless—were left there by relatives, neighbors, hospitals, and the police. Vita’s team then opened an in- firmary, where the abandoned waited with death. -

Traps Used to Catch Fur Bearing Animals Are Tailored to the Species and Habitat of the Animal
Animal trapping methods - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_trapping_methods From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Traps used to catch fur bearing animals are tailored to the species and habitat of the animal. The trapper must consider the types of bait, the size of trap to be used, the placement of the trap and where the fur-bearing animal is most likely to be caught. The success of which is often due to the trapper's personal experience, familiarity with the habits of the animal, and the terrain. Conscientious and experienced trappers also take care that the trap is not in such place that it will be sprung by a non-target animal, nor will it attract the attention of people. A responsible trapper will check his traps at least once a day, and will be ready to quickly despatch a trapped animal if it is still alive. Although there are a variety of traps used for different purposes, this article focuses on the trapping of fur-bearing animals, and thus relies on foothold traps and conibear traps, though the utility of other types of traps will be discussed. 1History 2 Preparation for trapping 3 Fur-bearing animals 3.1 Bears 3.2 Beaver 3.3 Coyote 3.4 Fox 3.5 Lynx 3.6 Martens and fisher 3.7 Mink 3.8 Muskrats 3.9 Nutria 3.10 Mice 3.11 Rats 3.12 Otter 3.13 Rabbits 3.14 Raccoons 3.15 Sable 3.16 Skunks and Opossums 3.17 Squirrels 3.18 Tigers 3.19 Weasels 3.20 Wolverines 3.21 Wolves 4 Snares 5 Deadfalls 6 Box or cage traps 7Birds 1 of 11 1/5/2017 12:31 PM Animal trapping methods - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_trapping_methods 8 Skinning animals 9 Occupational Risks 10 See also 11 References 12 External links In North America and in other parts of the world with cold climates such as northern Europe or Siberia, there is a long history of trapping.
