The fox was deliberately introduced to Australia for recreational actives in 1855. The fox populations became well established in the wild in 1871. Over the following hundred years the foxes had spread over a large majority of Australia. The fox has played a huge role in the decline of medium to small sized mammals such as the bilby, as well reptiles such as green turtles as well as the decrease of ground nesting birds, although the foxes aren’t full responsible for the decline in native animals…
Hunting over the years has lost its purpose of for food to a trophy. Hunting has caused pain and suffrage to animals of all kinds. For animals that are close knit and mate for life hunting has caused devastation to their entire community. Could you imagine losing a member of your family multiple times a year? Even if the animal isn’t killed on spot it is injured and would die from infection. Hunters will always have the upper hand because they are killing with weapons they cannot outrun. Hunters…
Destruction of Animals’ Homes in the Rainforest Why haven’t we realized our mistakes yet? Why? Our carelessness and greed, has been impacting wildlife majorly. We are taking away the homes of the animals in the Rainforest, and they are dying off so fast, and soon they may even go extinct. Some of the major reasons as to why animals are losing their homes, are because of Habit Degradation. Pollution, and the disruption in the ecosystem processes, (like changing the intensity of fires), which have…
America, parts Africa and Asia. They are very hot and humid and contain a huge variety of plants and animals round half of the entire world's species. Trees are mostly hardwood. “The world's largest tropical rainforests are in South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia” (Line3 TR), this explain as to why the temperature in these places tend to be humid. Tropical forest is a great place for many different species of plant to grow because of the balance climate that it has.”Tropical rainforests…
Rainforest. Bright green leaves from trees, animal moving all around, and beautiful trees, flowers and plant. Amazing, right? Well now imagine all of that being cut down, even destroyed. Many companies are cutting down trees in the Amazon to make factories, roads, farms, and to plant trees. By doing this, plants and animals are getting killed, which is causing a chain reaction. The animal and plant population goes down, then there is less food to hunt, then people are suffering from hunger.…

This is double of what we can reasonably expect in the…
Based on the analysis of the food web, it has been determined that the pond is a healthy and stable ecosystem, although a keystone species is not present. This disproves the hypothesis formed earlier in this lab that stated, “The pond is not ecologically stable and there is no keystone species. The pond does not seem to be biodiverse, and the relative population sizes of the organisms appears to be low, based on visual observations. A keystone species also does not appear to be present, or else…
The truth about animal cruelty is horrific. How that billions of animals each year are harmed and killed by us humans. While we’re sitting doing nothing, more numbers are decreasing and there isn’t enough people doing anything about it. Animal abuse is awful because it makes it harder for them to live. The air is being polluted and killing birds. Also global warming is melting the icecaps for polar bears, and is all caused by us humans. Millions of fish are killed by oil spills and fishers.…
a community of plants and animals, often mistaken as a desert, and is rarely found globally. This biome has a mountainous and plain-like terrain with a hot and dry climate. The plants and animals are well adapted to this environment. Though, similar to other biomes, the Chaparral can be impacted by humans and environmental factors. In addition, the altering of organisms’ energy sources can negatively impact the biome’s ecosystem. It is important to have a biome where humans, plants, and animals…
