As spawning season approaches, the fish acquire a humpback and protuberant jaw. After spawning, they die and their carcasses provide a feast for gatherings of mink, bears, and Bald eagles.

9,591 PointsYou can use the Minify Code site to minify or beautify (what you're going for) CSS, HTML & Javascript.
Your code should look this way:
.title {
font-size: 26px;
}
h2 {
font-size: 53px;
}
.main-content {
width: 75%;
}
with the properties indented.
Hope that helps! -Luke

5,788 Pointsget rid of the spaces between the property names and the colon. it should read "width: 75%" not "width : 75%". No spaces is standard practice. In real life I don't think it matters, but the testing algorithm isn't accepting it with the extra space.
