th e loyalty and faithfulness of dogs towards their owners have been
widely described in diff erent novels and short stories written by authors
throughout the world. th e dog is ready to sacrifi ce his life to save his
master’s life, and we all know the saying “as faithful as a dog”.
at the same time, some scientists who have studied the behaviour
of wild animals, state that wild animals can also show a special aff ection towards man.
during scientifi c expeditions, i was convinced by certain incidents
that wild animals can also possess and show emotions, as well as be of
help.
th e wild sows “capa”, “cicea” and “hrunea” were raised at the
nature reservation “codru”, where experiments to study the behaviour
of wild animals were performed. th ey were so attached to me that they
followed me everywhere in the forest. capa, as a leader, trailed right
behind me followed by cicea and hrunea, respectively.
one day i had to cross a valley covered by high, thick reed. right in
the middle of the valley, i came across a very large, wild boar. he was
sleeping on the wet, cold ground in the shade of the thick reed. upon
seeing me, the wild boar jumped to his feet, roared with fury and then
ran a distance of 5-6 m towards me. th en he started to circle round
me, intending to attack.
i found myself in a terrible situation: a giant creature, of more than 300 kg in weight, with an open mouth,
full of saliva, and very large, crooked, sharp teeth, with raised hair and bloody eyes was attacking me. my fi rst
instinct was to climb a tree, however no trees were nearby. i had nothing to save myself with.
i was very surprised to see how the tamed sows protected me. th ey began to move around, making the
space between me and the wild boar larger and larger. aft er several rotations the wild boar backed off , and then
turned around and ran into the forest.
i was saved.
The British Isles are the home of four nations — English, Scottish. Welsh and Irish. Even though foreigners often call all British people « English », and sometimes have difficulty in appreciating the distinctions, the component nations of the United Kingdom are well aware of their own individual characteristics. The Scots, Welsh and Irish regard themselves as largely Celtic peoples, while the English are mainly Anglo-Saxon in origin.
British society as a whole does not have a uniform cultural identity. In 1993 the population of the United Kingdom was about 58 million inhabitants. This figure gives a population density of 600 persons per square mile (284 per square km). England has an average density of 980 persons per square mile (364 per square km). This average does not reveal the even higher densities in some areas of the country, such as southeast parts. Within Europe only the Netherlands has a higher population than England.
