For my first semester animal research project, I looked at a bunch of species found in southern Illinois, learning about their habitats, diets, whether they’re native or invasive, and the pros and cons of each. Some of the animals I studied include salamanders, dragonflies, opossums, white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, black bears, ground squirrels, raccoons, groundhogs, coyotes, cardinals, hummingbirds, tree frogs, blue jays, red-tailed hawks, and striped skunks. After comparing my research with my team, I decided to focus on three threatened amphibians: the Eastern Narrow-Mouth Toad, the Bird-Voiced Treefrog, and the Illinois Chorus Frog. Now that I’m sharing this with the JJK, the plan can move forward and succeed.
