Wiki Assignment - pick and draft an article
The Article I'm choosing to edit is the "Toxocaridae" Wikipedia article. Zoonotic diseases are interesting and I have never heard of this one and want to learn more about it. Many sections of this article are weak in the sense that there is not a lot written within them. I plan on adding a few sentences from a number of references under either the "prevent" section, or creating an additional section. I must first research and find suitable sources, in addition to see what the article already has.

update: With further research, I found a subtopic that interests me: Toxicara and asthma. Nothing has been written about it in this article, and I think i will add a section on it.
