During this week I tweeted about the problems and solutions of my AP. It stemmed from human rationality to increasing security to protect the forest's animals being hunted. I saw a lot of new and interesting tweets by my classmates and I retweeted a lot about marine animals and their abuse in places like Seaworld. It is fascinating how blind the normal person is to these animal abuse issues due to the lack of knowledge being spread to them. This is why social media advocacy is so important for these animals.
At the beginning of this quarter, I did not expect I would be doing classwork and homework on Twitter. I thought there was no way there can be a productive learning experience on social media. But I was wrong. I was so surprised to learn so many new things about animal science and animal treatment around the world. I did not realize how effective a tool social media can be towards advocating for animals. After thinking about it, it's effectiveness comes from the large platform that you can use to educate people all around the world that can help with these issues. You never know who could see your tweet, and a lot of people have the capacity to help with these animal abuse issues. I think I'll continue to use twitter after the end of this class due to the fact that I learned it can be a useful tool for learning information and spreading information. Overall I had an enjoyable time learning and writing about animals and hope that we as humans can save them from extinction.
