Animals Abundant In West Africa

Africa is home to an extremely wide variety of animals from the very tiny army ant to the towering giraffe. There are certain animals, however, that inhabit only parts of the continent, such as the animals of West Africa. From the West African manatee and pygmy hippopotamus to the Diana monkey and zebra duiker, there is no dearth of interesting mammals in the western part of the continent.


West African Manatee

Known worldwide as "seacows," the large gray West African manatee has tiny flippers and a flat, rounded paddle at its rear. It uses its flippers to move, eat and touch its mates.


Pygmy Hippopotamus

The West African pygmy hippopotamus can be found in the lowland and wet forests of Sierra Leona and Cote d'Ivoire, specifically in and near the Bandama River. 


Black Colobus Monkey

Cameroon and the Congo River are home to the black colobus monkey -- one of the 10 most endangered money species in all of Africa.


Diana Monkey

Found in Ghana, Guinea, Cote D'Ivoire, Liberia and Sierra Leone, Diana monkeys inhabits the upper canopy of many West African forests. 


West African Dwarf Crocodile

What Is A Personal Injury Lawsuit?

A personal-injury lawsuit is a civil action instigated by an individual or group who has suffered mental or bodily harm due to the actions of another party. The goal of personal-injury lawsuits is to extract compensation from the accused party to cover any of the plaintiff's medical expenses and lost wages due to an inability to work, and to assuage emotional damage.





Suits have been brought to trial that addressed everything from slipping on ice to contaminated food to spoiled medication to being burned by overly hot food and drinks. Common causes of personal-injury suits include car accidents, verbal or emotional assault, a damaged reputation or destroyed property.




A particular type of personal-injury suit covers medical malpractice and misdiagnosis. Over the past 15 years, an increasing number of patients have filed claims against doctors, pharmacists and other health practitioners for providing incorrect or ineffective treatment or expired medication. 


Often, a personal-injury lawsuit never makes it to trial, but instead is settled outside of court. The plaintiff's lawyer contacts the liable party and suggests a settlement that will be paid outside of trial to compensate for the damages.

Settlement is typically beneficial for both parties, because it usually results in more money for the plaintiff and less scandal and attention paid to the liable party.

How Safe Liposuction Is?

According to Wikipedia, liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that removes fat from many different sites on the human body.

Most often, liposuction is performed on the abdomen and thighs in women, and the abdomen and flanks in men. The procedure itself involves inserting a tube (cannula) into areas that contain fat and using a suction device (aspirator) to draw the fat out of the body through the tube. Most often, liposuction also involves injecting fluids into the area where fat is removed, to loosen the fat cells and provide salts and localized anesthesia to reduce internal strain.

Liposuction evolved from work in the late 1960's from surgeons in Europe using primitive techniques. By 1980, liposuction was extremely popular in the United States. As the technology advances, liposuction procedures also improved.

Removal of very large volumes of fat is a complex and potentially life-threatening procedure, the more fat removed, the higher the surgical risk. Many surgeons and patients believe it is safer to limit the amount of liposuction done in one day and avoid doing liposuction with unrelated cosmetic surgeries on the same day.

Although liposuction is very popular nowadays, not everyone is a good candidate for this surgery. A good candidate is a person who has realistic expectations, in good health and is likely to be happy with the results.

Risks Often Outweigh Benefits

As with any surgery, there are certain risks, beyond the temporary and minor side effects and the surgeon should mention them during a consultation. Risk of complication is usually associated with how large the procedure is, as well as the surgeons skills and specific training.


Liposuction is the most common cosmetic operation in the United States and the United Kingdom. Over 400,000 procedure are carried out in the US each year. Cost of liposuction is an important factor when considering this kind of surgery. However, the quality is more important than its cost. Choosing a liposuction surgeon based on the lowest price might ultimately the most expensive choice. If the initial results are bad, you will need to pay another surgeon to repair the work of the first liposuction surgeon.
