That was supposed to be a joke up there, so hahaha! No? Alright, that's cool. Well, welcome back! I'm super (not) excited to be back in school starting off a wonderful educational week! Today, I am writing on Peppered Moths and how they, well, changed. Peppered Moths were found in Europe a little bit around the time when manufacturing was just being introduced. They were studied and after a while, scientists started noticing that they seemed to be changing color from white, to a dark peppered looking color. After studying more, scientists evaluated that the pollution in the air form the manufacturing was causing the peppered moths to change color.
An interesting thing thought about peppered moths that scientists also found out was that light-colored peppered moths were more likely to survive in a light-colored forest than darker moths. It was the same for darker-moths in a dark-colored forest. It sounds really understandable to. Like a bunch of square blocks stacked on-top-of each other with one triangle on top, we all know the triangle is going to stand out more. The problem was, light-peppered moths, were being used as lunch for some really hungry animals in the dark-colored forest called... just kidding there's no "monster."
