Cane toads

In this set of materials, the writer strongly postulates that several measures have been proposed to stop the spread of cane tode in Australia and explains three ways to endorse his idea. However, the professor states that the measures mentioned by the author cannot stop the spread of cane toad and gainsays every argument mentioned in the passage.

First and foremost, the passage begins by asserting that a way to reduce the population of toads is to build a national fence to prevent the movement of toads to other areas of Australia, like the spread of rabbits was prevented back in the early part of the twentieth century to save the native ecosystem. However, the professor does not think that a national fence would be effective in minimizing the spread of toads because he believes that young toads and eggs can get transferred through rivers and streams flowing to other parts of the national fence.

Next, the professor in the lecture focuses on other reasons that capturing the toads through volunteers by organizing a campaign will destroy the native frogs of Australia. This claim refutes the author's implication of reducing the spread of toads by gathering and destroy young toads and cane toads eggs by Australian citizens.

Ultimately, the article wraps its arguments by declaring that researchers are developing a virus that will cause a disease in reptiles and amphibians but specifically toads that will prevent them from maturing and reproducing. However, the speaker in the listening refutes this point by insisting on the inaccuracy of this idea. He thinks this will be an ecological disaster because the virus will spread to the King toads of America when infected reptiles and amphibians were transported to America. This will ultimately destroy the King species of toads that are a vital part of the ecosystem.
