21-Year-Old Female with Skeletal Injuries
While riding her bike to campus, 21-year-old Liliana Rose was struck by a car. Examination in the Emergency Department reveals several injuries. Relative to her integumentary system, the following comments are noted on her chart:
•Epidermal abrasions of the right lateral upper arm and anterior shoulder.
•A deep, 2-cm laceration extending vertically on right lateral cheek and a horizontal 1-cm laceration on the temple.
•Cyanosis is apparent in her nail beds and lips.
The lacerated areas are cleaned, sutured (stitched), and bandaged by the emergency room (ER) personnel.
3. Liliana is concerned about scarring to her face. The surgeon tells her that the cut extending along her temple should heal with little scarring, but the one extending up her cheek is more likely to scar. Why might this be the case?

- Using information from the primary literature (several references have been provided as a starting point below) please answer the following question: Based on your review of the literature on rewilding, what are the major scientific pros and cons for rewilding? Please note that the focus of this assignment are the (biological) scientific issues associated with rewilding. As will be discussed in class, there are a number of non-scientific issues involved or implicated in rewilding, all ultimately affecting the public acceptability of rewilding. Although these issues are important – indeed, critical – in this assignment you should focus on the biological science issues and questions. Details: You must enumerate at least two pros and at least two cons. Your answer should be no more than 500 well-chosen words, excluding references. Think carefully about how best to organize and structure your answer. Aim for high information density: say a lot, but say it succinctly.
