The reading and the lecture both discuss the cane toad and its rabid spread and multiplication that causes harm to the other small native animals that are not pests. The reading discusses three possible solutions to control the growth which the lecture refutes every one of them.
First, the reading claimes that one solution is to build a national fence to prevent the cane toad from crossing into the other unaffected areas in Australia. The lecturer opposes this, by saying that as the water stream in the waterways will continue to flow. The young toads and eggs most possibly carried out by the stream past the fence and reach to the unharmed areas. The lecturer also said even a few eggs and young toads are able to multiplicate and form a population.
Second, the Reading presents the argument that cane toads can be captured and eliminated by volunteers. It also claimes that the young toads and eggs are even easier to be collected and then destroyed. The lecturer counters this argument by saying that this will inadvertently destroy the endangered toads and frogs. The untrained volunteers might not be able to distinguish between the cane toads and other frogs especially when they are young.
Lastly, the reading suggests that the ongoing development of a disease-causing virus by the researchers that will aid to eliminate the cane toads in the area could be a solution. The professor in the lecture refutes this. She said that this will be a bad idea because it will have a horrible consequences in the natural habitat of the cane toads in central and south America. The infected toads might be transferred to the cane toads natural habitat by researchers or pet collectors and this will devastate the population and harm the ecosystem badly.
