Cane toads fast spread

Essay topics

The passage proposes three main solutions to the problem of uncontrolled spread of the cane toad species in Australia, whereas the professor in the lecture casts doubt on the effectiveness of these methods. She argues that these proposals would lead to unsuccessful attempts or unwanted damages to the ecosystem.

First of all, the writer proposes to build a national fence in order to prevent the distribution of the toads to new places where they have not reached yet. On the contrary, the lecturer disputes the performance of this idea by referring to the point that young toads and toad eggs can reach the entire area through rivers and streams which are spread across the whole country.

Furthermore, the professor refutes the argument in the reading that a public campaign to kill these species would results in a successful and regulated declination in the number of toads exclusively. According to the professor, untrained individuals might mistakenly cause severe damages to the population of native frogs in Australia, and consequently, not only wouldn't such campaigns benefit the ecosystem, but it might have devastating influences as well.

Finally, the professor alleges that utilizing a virus to diminish the number of toads may have grave implications for the native toads in central America and disrupt the natural equilibrium. This statement contradicts that part of the passage, according to which, a specially designed virus for toads, will not harm other species and ecosystems in general. The lecturer also illustrates that it is probable that some of these animals are transported to central America, to where they are indigenous, due to research purposes. Therefore, this theory might lead to a terrible disaster in the environment, in which toads are vital elements.
