- A bibliography
Possible main points may include:
- What the creature looks like.
- What it eats.
- Where it comes from.

Everything written in your report MUST be in YOUR own words. Write your notes, and then put them in your own words. A mark of 1 will be assigned to students who plagiarize – no exceptions.
