The reading and the lecture are both about cane toads, which harm greatly to small native animals of Australia. The author of the reading feels some strategies may solve this problem. However, the lecturer challanges the claims made by the author. She is of the opinion that these methods are not efficient.
To begin with, the author argues proved method on rabbits previously, which is building national fence will prevent colonization of cane toads in the area where they have not moved there yet. This specific claims is challanged by the lecturer. She claims that the eggs and younger toads could have spread with flow of river to a lot of region still. Therefore, this method does not prevent colonizing of them to new areas.
Secondly, the writer suggests that huge number of toads could be easily declined by volunteers. Because trapping and capturing of them is not difficult. The lecturer, however, robuts it byy mentioning if untrained people try to destroy them, they could damage to other native animals mistakenly, as well. That is why, even massive amount of people may decrease total number of cane toads, this could result dangerous consequences for other species.
Finally, the author posits that disease-causing virus generated for cane toads specificly, could cause extincion of them by inhibiting their maturation and reproduction processes. In contrast, the lecturer's position is that this method end up destruction of all cane toads, which is one part of ecological system. After extinction, this would effect all system subsequently.
