Summary:
The blind velvet worm hunts by shooting sticky slime at prey. The scientific name for the blind velvet worm is the Tasmanipatus Anophthalmus. This worm lives deep in rotting logs within dry eucalyptus or sclerophyll forests. Much about this worm is unknown as research of these worms requires logs to be broken up which destroys the habitat for the worms. Only two major events happened on the timeline of the blind velvet worm, 1996, Blind Velvet Worm added to the IUCN list, 2006, a wild fire burnt about 30,000 hectares in the St. Marys area which could've decreased Blind Velvet Worm numbers.
Backward-Looking:
How much did you know about the subject before we started?
I didn't know about the blind velvet worm before this project started. I knew about other worms but never knew about this one specific worm. We were actually were trying to look for a random species for the bonus points. We came across the blind velvet worm and decided to give it a go. But other than knowing about some worms I didn't know anything else about this subject.
Inward-Looking:
How do you feel about this piece of work? What parts of it do you particularly like? Dislike? Why? What did/do you enjoy about this piece or work?
I wasn't the proudest of this work as there could've been more info on the Blind Velvet Worm if there was more information on the internet and IUCN list. I liked the searching through different endangered species to choose our animal for your endangered species project. I disliked research because very little information was provided for the Blind Velvet Worm. I liked working with my team as well and the all worked well.
Outward-Looking:
What grade would you give it? Why?
I would give this work a B+. I would give it this grade because the info was pretty precise and there. But the infographic was unfinished and needed a little more work on it. The information on the research was precise but lacked details on population of the remaining worms. Little details were provided for major events on Blind Velvet Worm timeline for the IUCN list.
Forward-Looking:
One thing I would like to improve upon is ...
I would like to improve the amount of effort that went into this project. More effort could've been used for the research. The presentation that we were supposed to do could've gone a lot better if we submitted and presented it. The infographic needed more effort to finish as it wasn't finished. This is what needed more effort put into it.
