Rhetorical Analysis Oregon Fish And Wildlife Commission

General For this Rhetorical Analysis assignment, I have reviewed two documents, one from John Vucetich, a Professor of Wildlife at Michigan Technical University and one from Adrian Treves, an Associate Professor of Environmental Studies at The University of Wisconsin. Both documents request that the Grey Wolf remains on Oregon’s Endangered Species List as the specifications of removing the wolf from the list have not yet been met.AudienceThe primary audience of these two documents is the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission and it is clearly stated upon both documents in a letter like format, where they state, â€Å"To the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission:† or â€Å"Dear Commissioners,†. The Secondary Audience would apply to any of the other†¦show more content†¦Ultimately, Adrian Treves has done a better job advocating for the grey wolf to remain on the endangered species list, through his format and use of lists and bolded literature. There do not se em to be any apparent violations within the conventions. The time line of these documents is in very close proximity as both of the memos were written during the month of October on day twenty-seven and twenty-eight, within the year of 2015. Some social and political issues that come into play during these memos is the issue that Oregon’s Commissioners is considering delisting grey wolves from the endangered species list based on propositions that I quote are â€Å"...not supported by science, the law or the public.† and â€Å"The continued insistence on delisting wolves seems motivated by politics and specious perception that it would make things easier for the agency.† (Page 4). It is apparent that the motive to remove grey wolves from the endangered species list would make it â€Å"easier† for the agencies that constantly have to monitor and deal with the problems that arise with having wolves in the state but, the current wolf population in Oregon is roughly eighty to eighty-three animals which is far below the carrying capacity of the state.
