My goal for next year is to place 1st in Reptiles and Amphibians at states. This year we were apparently only 1 question behind the 1st place team. That question was the tie breaker question. I thought we got that wright but apparently we didnt. The question said to identify this animal and something else. I think it may of been to state a unique charastic of the animal but i'm not sure.. if forget. Anyway the animal was CLEARLY a red-spotted newt and i could of sworn we got the second part of that right too...

It really wasnt bad. It was just "identify these 2 creatures, and answer 2 multiple choice questions about them". We just didnt study enough, and took too long to identify some of them.
