As an illustration the Leopard slug occupies nearly world-wide distribution through human activities. The organism that I have chosen lives on my…
the needles! When you walk by the stage in Diagon Alley, you might hear fantasizing stories from one of the wisest books in the wizarding world, like The Tales of Beedle The Bard. Some might be the unbelievable puppetry or extravagant singing with toads. If you're thirsty and eager, my family tried a classic and refreshing drink- butterbeer! Stop into The Fountain of Fortune, The Leaky Cauldron, or The Hopping Pot. You can choose from chilling frozen butterbeer, warm and calming butterbeer, or…
to cure themselves. “As people became more desperate, they began to use toad’s venom in hopes of sucking out the plague” (Document 10). People became very hopeless during the spreading of the plague, that they even took extreme measures of hanging toads in hopes of “sucking out the plague.” While the people of Europe fell into chaos, the leaders of the states of power stopped all trade and all travel stopped.

Plants in the Amazon and subarctic forests are trying to grow more towards the polar caps in search for cooler areas.
