Troubled Species: Report #1
Troubled Species: Report #1
This report explores a common environmental concern: species that are in trouble. The trouble stems from the species either being near extinction (“endangered” or “threatened” or “a keystone species”) or out of place (“invasive species” or “non-native species”). Chose one species that falls into one of those categories as a focus of this report.
