Kia Ora,

Problem: If you took a bush dog out of it's natural habitat there would be plenty of problems like...
 * It would be bored because it's got a smaller area now. In the wild it had as much room as it pleased. Now it has limited space and can't run as fast as it needs to.
 * They would get lonely because there would most likely only be 3 at the most Bush Dogs in a cage at once. Bushdogs like to be in groups, they would have lived all their life in a group. So now in theri new habitat, they would be quite lonely.
 * They might feel scared. Being moved from free air, trees and nature. They are then placed into a cage. With things to act as nature, but are clearly not nature at all.
 * Be homesick. Bush dogs fight alot in the wild. Without being able to fight other animals, they might start to miss home. Miss their normal life.
 * Not get any exercise, in the wild they run till kingdom come. However in the environment, they don't need to hunt, and that's how they exercise.

Soloution:
 * I'm going to create a toy that makes the bush dog exercise, and also jump and crawl. So I came up with a string of rope. It starts low and gets higher and higher. This will mean that the bush dog has to jump high or crawl low. The elastic dosen't go high enough that they can just crawl under without any hasstle, but it doesn't stay low so that they can jump it with ease.

 Benefits: Not introducing the toy would be a bad idea. This toy enhances the bush dogs fitness level and jumping. The reason for this it because they have to jump over things that get higher and higher. It can also get a run up improving it's running.

DRAFT OF MY SOLUTION: coming soon

= Vanessa, = Dont forget to tell the reader what your success criteria relates to. It would be a good idea to explain the background history to this project, refelcting on last terms work. I would also expect to see your success criteria listed in the correct order. The criteria listed is a good start - there are a couple of stages that you have not yet included. Be sure to refer to the websites I have listed to check what these are! Happy researching, Mrs B
