Barking Treefrogs Research Paper

Decent Essays
Around the world, every living animal has its own life history and own ecology. Barking Treefrogs are unique and friendly amphibians usually found in Florida and surrounding states. Although they are one of the largest frogs found in the United States, the number of Barking Treefrogs in the United States are starting to reduce due to habitat loss. All amphibians have distinct traits that assemble each one of them as an individual; Barking Treefrogs are exclusive in every trait they own by having an individual mating, eating, and living style.
All different species of animals either decreases or increases in population over time. In the history of the Barking Treefrog, there used to be a more substantial amount of them than there are today.

    Bay horses range in color from a light copper red, to a rich red blood bay (the best-known variety of bay horse) to a very dark red or brown called dark bay, mahogany bay, black-bay, or brown (occasionally "seal brown"). The dark, brown shades of bay are referred to in other languages by words meaning "black-and-tan. " Dark bays/browns may be so dark as to have nearly black coats, with brownish-red hairs visible only under the eyes, around the muzzle, behind the elbow, and in front of the stifle. Dark bay should not be confused with "Liver" chestnut, which is also a very dark brown color, but a liver chestnut has a brown mane, tail and legs, and no black…

    Megan Hoffman The truth and importance of Gray Wolves Even under protective laws, Gray Wolves are still being killed! Although people tend to look down on wolves in general, it does not mean it's for good reason or acceptable. There is more to any creature then meets the eye, and for Wolves it is especially so. Gray Wolves are of a greater benefit then what we give them credit for and are often mistreated or otherwise viewed as something unwanted, unneeded, and ill-received. The Gray Wolf species has long been damned and slaughtered for minuscule infractions and illusions of identity despite how they are unlike their fabled counterparts, are viewed as "Spiritual brothers" by some Native Americans (Swinburne 10), and are beneficial to their…

    Hedgehogs Research Paper

    Hedgehogs are by far, one of the ugliest sorts of creatures we take home as pets. Much like a rat, yet covered with long hair that makes them look spiked, hedgehogs are a bit more friendly and absolutely fat, often getting stuck on their large backs, flailing their short, stubby legs in every direction. It is no question that these animals are not attractive to look at. On the other hand, when seeing them play, popping their head out of your favorite coffee mug, or cuddled up in the tiniest of blankets, or wearing the holiday hats you dress them in without protest, they seem not very ugly at all, actually quite adorable and cute. Not only in hedgehogs, but in every aspect of life, there is something both beautiful and ugly to be found.…

    Air pollution is a global environmental issue where solid particles and gases, such as car emissions and chemicals from factories, affect the quality of the air (Daly, Zannetti 2). This causes damage to all species living in an affected area. Excess nitrogen, which can be created from air pollution, can then cause eutrophication and acidification effects on ecosystems, such as increase in bark pH and the change of ammonium and nitrate in precipitation (APIS). These adjustments mainly affect species that are customized to low nitrogen availability, like lichens mosses, and thus they are in danger of extinction. However, lichens are considered highly valued ecological indicators because of their sensitivity to a wide range of environmental stressors like air quality and climate change (Jovan 4).…
