Old Information on Animals

Content:

This web page is set up in a timeline of NC history. What it contains are information on animals from newspaper articles and magazines. This information gives you an idea of what people thought of animals decades ago. It tells you how people used animals for their own benefit, and people's discoveris on what animals can be used for. You can also read scientifical articles that contain for example information on the fly. What is the structure of the fly, what it is, what it lives on, how it lays it's eggs, etc. Reading this information can be educating and you will not only learn about animals and be able to compare old information to what is known today, but also about what people thought decades ago, how they wrote and how their vocabulary has developed. If you have any suggestions, please e-mail me. My e-mail address is on the bottom of the homepage of animals.
