  2. Introduction Introduction Task Process Product Expected Evaluation Scenario: You live in a small farm community where people raise mostly cows and horses. There is a bridge in your town under which thousands of bats nest. In the last week, several dead skunks have appeared around people’s houses. A local resident took one such skunk to a local veterinarian, who had it sent to the state diagnostic lab to see if it tested positive for rabies. IT WAS POSITIVE. Now, you and your neighbors are worried that an epidemic might be about to break out and affect the local livestock and your pets (and maybe YOU!) in YOUR HOME ECOSYSTEM!!! What should people in your community do?
