Doing a part.
Saving the wetlands.Hey guys! Yea...I'm kinda busy now,
however when I saw this article in the Straits Time, in the morning,
I HAD TO share it with you guys!
It's about US scientists recruiting crocodiles to save
wetlands
Interesting right? haha.
They do it by implanting satellite chips in their necks. (and it's for the
1st time!)
This enables them to obtain important data of the ecosystem when the crocs
venture in the national park by observing their size and movement
patterns.
The scientists use different parameters to track responses of alligators
and crocodiles
to changes in the ecosystem, including their number, their weight, their
size, and their places of habitat.
This helps greatly in analysing the health of the Everglades' ecosystem'
and in seeing if past conversation efforts have succeeded.
(-info from Straits Times)
WOW! I think this is a really great way of helping the environment don't you think?
Hahas, yea I'm just really glad that many people out there are trying to do their best to save the environment,
which also means more animals are being saved!
This article just makes my day, plus being able to share it with you! =D
So continue to do your part to save the environment!
