This is personification and a metaphor (either one or the other).
personification- it’s giving the clouds a feeling or trait (giving racist prejudice to clouds)
metaphor- not really meaning what it’s saying there are no “dark clouds” but it means it’s a dark time for people of what is happening

Metaphor because the clouds and fog are being compared to a completely different thing: racial prejudice and misunderstanding.

PLEASE HELP!! IM STUCK! I will give you 25 points!
diamong [38]

Answer:

A year ago I wrote this same type of essay, I'm going to give you pointers.

Explanation:

1: The deer population on Komodo island is decreasing due to poachers. The effect of the decreasing Deer Population means less food for the Dragons

2: The villagers are currently facing problems with the Komodo dragons both of their livestock being attacked and their own children being attacked as well. In fact a villager commented: "Today is a goat, tomorrow is a child".

3: These problems can be easily fixed. The government can help stop poaching on deers. Secondly, a petition for the villagers to allow feeding the Komodo to stop them from going after their livestock and children has been requested. Lastly, a dragon-proof fence has also been requested by the villagers but has been denied by the Nature Conservancy.

Hope this helped!
