Welcome to my Blog!

Hey there! Welcome to my blog. My name is Clinton, and more information about me can be found in the About Author page!

This blog’s purpose is to educate people about exotic species, its causes, impacts, and certain solutions to curb any damage done. Please look through the different pages above for a more comprehensive explanation of this topic!

I chose this topic because I am fascinated by how nature always finds a way to balance itself (just like in the movie Godzilla), and how the environment has changed due to human’s influence over the years. Once I took a trip to a local frog farm, where I was first introduced to this issue. A guide there told us that most of the frogs there cannot be released into the wild as they might die or disrupt the ecosystem. That was where I became intrigued about the impact of introduced species!

Check out this video below for a infamous example of an exotic/invasive species, the Asian Carp. Listen to certain impacts mentioned in the video.

This issue is not well-known even though it has a large impact on the environment, and so I hope through this blog to spread awareness about exotic species in Singapore!

*THIS IS NOT A BORING ISSUE AND I AM SURE IT WILL BE WORTH A READ FOR YOU
