Spottyblog

Actually, this has been lying around on my harddrive since before I left the CCF, but only now have I had the opportunity to update my blog and upload the English version of my term paper Behavioural Studies On Cheetahs In Captivity (PDF, 253 KB). A slightly updated version of the German version is also available: Verhaltensstudien an Geparden in Gefangenschaft (PDF, 255 KB).

As always, comments are very welcome. If you have any suggestions or complaints, feel free to email me at benjamin@jasiri.de 🙂

Also, I have uploaded a huge amount of images to my online gallery at DeviantArt. Please have a look at some pictures and let me know what you think. See some examples here:

The bad news first: It took me almost a month to write this post. The good news: my paper has been graded and I have a grade of 13 (out of 15), which translates into an A- (or 1- in the German system)! 😀

I’m actually quite happy with it, considering most of my ‘mistakes’ were not directly related to the topic itself but because of formatting and some left out things (some quotations or explanations). I had 13 points in the written part and 14 points in the oral examination that follows the correction. It’s used to make sure one really wrote the report all by oneself. If you’d like to see it, you can download the PDF here (248 KB). I will update it as I remove or rework whatever was criticised.

So… yes, quite happy right now. 🙂

Good news everyone! I have finished my course work (“Facharbeit”) last week, and therefore I’m able to publish it here 🙂

The good news: it’s about some of the cheetahs at CCF. The bad news: it still isn’t translated yet, thus you’ll have to cope with the German version until I finish school and find some time to translate it into English.

But now, without further ado, have a look for yourself and download the PDF (248 KB). Feel free to comment on it or point out any inconsistencies you may find. My paper has already been handed over to my teacher, but I’m going to correct errors in any case since I plan to translate it in the future 😀

The grade’s due in a few weeks. If it’s not too disappointing I’ll let you know here.
