The Book “Creatures of Empire” by Virginia Dejohn Anderson sheds light into how livestock became a crucial part of life in the new world. The goal of setting a colony up in New England was to create an overseas empire. The idea was to spread Old England’s
The manure that was brought over by the livestock even changed the type of grass and plants that grew in New England. Colonists even created dams, millponds and canals in the years to come, which resulted in major changes in the fish population, mosquito diseases, and also changed the water flow in some areas. These are just some of the ecological changes that the colonists caused on New England from trying to make a completely different ecosystem into the one in
“ ‘And now famine beginning to look ghastly and pale in every face that nothing was spared to maintain life and to do those things which seem incredible, as to dig up dead corpse out of graves and to eat them, and some have licked up the blood which hath fallen from their weak fellows’ “, reads a firsthand account from George Percy who was an eyewitness of cannibalism in Jamestown, during the “Starving Time” in 1609-1610.

This demonstrates how the land provided advantages and usefulness for the original settlers, and had characteristics and resources unique to the region, as the settlers had not seen anything like it.

In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, the creature that Victor Frankenstein creates is not born evil. One cannot be born evil because we are shaped by our environment and the people we are exposed to therefore it is impossible for one to be born evil.
