I’m Melissa, 22 years of age, Taken, Central NJ, Animal Lover. ♦ *Note: Most of these photos are not mine unless stated other wise.* ♦ I started this blog back in December of 2011 in hopes to get people more involved with wildlife and nature. My goal is for humans to understand that we as animals should respect other animals. For people to know what we have done and continue to do to this planet every single day. WE are destroying the land we all call home. It isn’t fair and it’s time we act NOW. I conclude that this is an animal/nature blog, it consists of 95% animal photos as well as landscapes. You will also notice that there are some random photos as well as text posts. Please feel welcome to ask me questions if you have any. Thanks. ♥Tumblr (3.0; @earthandanimals)http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/121298c506263ece33f6e1987b269ece/tumblr_mmvly91tOG1s05o54o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://tiny-creatures.tumblr.com/post/51032678325/three-oh-two-by-annemarks" target="_blank">tiny-creatures</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://annemarks.deviantart.com/art/Three-Oh-Two-206217525" target="_blank">Three Oh Two</a> by *<a href="http://annemarks.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">AnneMarks</a></p> </blockquote>http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158530237http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158530237Thu, 23 May 2013 13:34:30 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/4c28356fd6516905bcfd593b9f9c355b/tumblr_mn9i1uqQJ51r38hk2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://funnywildlife.tumblr.com/post/51158410704/the-lynx-effect" target="_blank">funnywildlife</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=438781152877945&set=a.217405961682133.48497.171166856306044&type=1&theater" target="_blank"><strong>The Lynx Effect!</strong></a></p> </blockquote>http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158516407http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158516407Thu, 23 May 2013 13:34:15 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/cafc3f0a502b65cabc9b194fae5a7198/tumblr_mn9hrzeIyM1r38hk2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://funnywildlife.tumblr.com/post/51158083303/awesome-foursome-cheetah-pose-in-a-row" target="_blank">funnywildlife</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=438867149536012&set=a.315259665230095.69292.171166856306044&type=1&theater" target="_blank"><strong>Awesome Foursome Cheetah Pose in a Row!!</strong></a></p> </blockquote>http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158188399http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158188399Thu, 23 May 2013 13:28:20 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/50c4e106533314223a250f7a33874f4d/tumblr_mn9hsxI5qf1snbrauo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://fuckyeah-nature.tumblr.com/post/51158113651/jf-by-bkbrown-on-flickr" target="_blank">fuckyeah-nature</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bkbrown/8394773416/" title="JF" target="_blank">JF</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bkbrown/" target="_blank">BKBROWN.</a> on Flickr.</p> </blockquote>http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158183657http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51158183657Thu, 23 May 2013 13:28:15 -0400<a href="http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51156313243">earthandanimals: Reblog this for a chance to by my BOTM!</a>: <p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com/post/51156313243" target="_blank">earthandanimals</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>-<strong> Must</strong> be following <a href="http://earthandanimals.tumblr.com" target="_blank">earthandanimals</a> <em><strong>I will check</strong></em></p> <p>- Likes will be<strong> ignored</strong>.</p> <p>- If you reblog multiple times you will have a<em> higher </em>chance of being chosen.</p> <p>- You don’t have to be an animal/nature blog but I’d <strong>prefer</strong> it if you were.</p> <p>- I will be be selecting <strong>ONE</strong> lucky blog to be my<strong> BOTM</strong></p> <p><strong>- Winner will get a link on my page for the entire month of JUNE.
