Ecological Issues

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ez1k_f9pIIQXKu6z1FvxLaKPVkfZeiz4rR9n1I7SZbw/edit?usp=sharing

For my ecological issue paper, I focused on a small toad living in the Kihansi falls.  This toad is specially adapted to living there with flaps on it's eyes for protection from the spray, and it's extremely small, a grown one about the size of a US penny.  The problem was that it was going extinct thanks to a dam being built nearby the fall, which diverted the water to the hydroelectric dam, so the spray no longer protected them.

I think I could've written more in this paper, and I could've put some images in the text.  Actually, I couldn't put images, because none are CC licensed, but I could've made it a lot more interesting.  I could've put maybe a paragraph describing what life for this toad must have been like, or I could've used better word choice.  I looked back at a research project from last year, and I thought that it was better that this one I made.  I'm not sure if I should be worried, or if that is a good thing.
