Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Ball Python
 * B-Class
 * It has good information present, but a lot could be expanded on such as the Breeding or In Captivity section. It does mention the issues with "Spider" ball pythons, but I believe there are other morphs that carry other detrimental characteristics. I would also be curious to see how captive raised ball pythons affect the environment if released.
 * Sources
 * The sources look pretty decent and appear to be relatively scientific.

Option 2

 * Green Iguana in captivity
 * Start Class
 * I feel as though this is pretty surface level information. I think there should also be an expansion on the information regarding released green iguanas and their effect on habitats when invasive. What kind of impact do these have on the native flora and fauna?
 * Sources
 * Some of the sources are good, but others do not look very scientific or backed by reliable sponsors. I think the information could be found in more credible places with a closer deep dive on various topics.

Option 3

 * Redtailed catfish
 * Start Class
 * It has a relatively good foundation, also it is fairly bare in terms of wikipedia articles. They list it as a fossil species, and I would be curious to know how it has been able to survive for so long as well as its role in the ecosystem. I think that since it has been able to stick around, that it must be important in some way or fills some niche in their habitat. I'd be curious to know if there are conservation efforts out there to maintain the species or if it is even at a level of concern or threat of extinction.
 * Sources
 * The sources could definitely be more credible as they don't seem to be from very many reliable sources. There are also only a handful of sources which leads me to believe that there isn't much research about them or that they are not often a topic of discussion.
