If you are unclear about citation, please review the final page of the syllabus, as well as the link for whichever citation style you prefer, or is required by your major.

You may use any citation style you prefer (not just the Chicago/Turabian style, as is modeled in the syllabus).Once you select a style, please be consistent.

Read the passages below.

The first is the original source, for which I have provided the publication information you will need to compose citations. As you read the student composition that follows you should notice that it is missing citations – and it needs them.

Using the source and publication information, insert the three (3) citations that are needed in the appropriate locations with the correct formatting.Please keep in mind, the student may have taken from the passage word-for-word, requiring you to either repair the composition or acknowledge the quotation appropriately.

“The point here is to remember that animals act based upon not only their instinct (breeding results) but out of their training, environment, stimulus, what they’ve learned, and many other factors. So we need to think in as nuanced a way about animal behavior as we do about people behavior. The accurate way to think of it is “this individual duck does this” or “this particular sheep does that.” And also, like people they change from year to year. Our ducks never ate mature vegetation during the growing season, just during the winter, for three years. Then in year four they attacked my large cabbage plants. Why? Maybe because it was very dry and the slug population plummeted. Maybe. The point is just because an animal or group of animals tend to have acted in certain ways in the past is no reason to think they will always act that way. They respond to conditions just the way people do, actually probably more.”

Student Composition:

I’ve been saying for years that animals should be thought of as having their own personalities and characters. I know from experience that animals respond to conditions just the way people do, actually probably more. My pets respond to how people interact with them, the tone of their voice to their body language, as well as the color of their clothing. My rabbit is particularly sensitive and that’s led me to acknowledge that animal behavior is really quite nuanced, just like with people. It’s been these experiences that have revealed how much we need to accept, as a society, that animals are individuals and that they act in different ways in different contexts. Once we do that, we’ll be kinder to animals and have a more fulfilling relationship with them too.
