I changed my hypothesis to make my project more community ecology focused. I changed it to:
the spatial distribution of garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis) is determined by body size and ambient temperature.
I also had to change many parts of my project but I was able to keep and use the data I had collected over the summer. I also changed my study design to a logistic regression design. Over the course I now understand more ecology theory and practices. Ive also learned how vast the field of ecology is.
