1 .None of the methods proposed in the reading offers a practical solution for slowing down the decline in frog populations.
该句暂无译文!
2 .There are problems with each of the methods you read about.

1 .First, seriously reducing pesticides in agricultural areas with threatened frog populations is not economically practical or fair.
该句暂无译文!
2 .Farmers rely on pesticides to decrease crop losses and stay competitive in the market.
该句暂无译文!
3 .If farmers in areas that are close to endangered frog populations have to follow stricter regulations regarding pesticide use, then those farmers would be at a severe disadvantage compared to farmers in other areas.

4 .They would likely lose more crops and have a lower yield than competing farms.

1 .Second, the new treatments against the skin fungus you read about?
该句暂无译文!
2 .Let me explain a couple of problems with this plan.
该句暂无译文!
3 .The treatments must be applied individually to each frog.
该句暂无译文!
4 .And so using them on a large scale is extremely difficult.
该句暂无译文!
5 .It requires capturing and treating each individual frog in a population.
该句暂无译文!
6 .Moreover, the treatments do not prevent the frogs from passing the fungus onto their offspring.
该句暂无译文!
7 .So the treatments would have to be applied again and again to each new generation of frogs.
该句暂无译文!
8 .So applying these treatments would be incredibly complicated and expensive.

1 .Third, while it's a good idea to protect lakes and marshes from excessive water use and development, that will not save frog populations.
该句暂无译文!
2 .You see, water use and development are not the biggest threats to water and wetland habitats.
该句暂无译文!
3 .The real threat is global warming.
该句暂无译文!
4 .In recent decades, global warming has contributed to the disappearance of many water and wetland habitats, causing entire species to go extinct.
该句暂无译文!
5 .Prohibiting humans from using water or building near frog habitats is unlikely to prevent the ongoing habitat changes caused by global warming.
