TPO-15 - Integrated Writing Task The cane toad is a large (1.8 kg) amphibian species native to Central and South America. It was deliberately introduced to Australia in 1935 with the expectation that it would protect farmers' crops by eating harmful insec

The reading passage makes three proposals, to cease the spread of the cane toad in Australia which destroys the work of farmers, including to build a fence, collect volunteers or develop a disease or virus. However, the lecturer cast doubts each idea of the author.

First and foremost, the article suggests that the fence will block the canes to access the parts of Australia that are toad-free. On the other hand, the professor denied that point by asserting that the young toads live in marine, so, even though where the fence would build, they could not obstruct the movement in the water. According to him, it is not an adequate way.

Secondly, the passage indicates that volunteers could hunt the young canes because they live in water and also easy to catch. Also, the government can create the campaign to collect them. In contrast, the lecturer clarified that inexperienced volunteers could hunt the frogs instead of young canes. He also argued that people may hurt the economic system by declining the population of the native frog.

Finally, the reading claims that people can control the population of cane toad by developing a virus or diseases. Nonetheless, the lecturer made a counterclaim to the idea by explaining that the virus can spread to America by transportation which may be harmful to the cane toads in America that are native in there. He also insisted that it may have terrible consequences for the population of canes all over the world.
