Conservation Biology Grades 5-Adult Conservation of wildlife and habitat is becoming an increasingly important part of our daily lives. We'll examine how global conservation efforts have impacted tropical rainforests, marine ecosystems, even our own backyards and we'll look into the future to see how our actions will affect the continuing survival of wildlife and habitat. It exists right here on Long Island. Salt marshes, wetlands, and other coastal and marine ecosystems are home to an incredible range of animals from fish to crustaceans to mollusks. Learn how they interact and how their habitats are influenced by tides and people.
Hardwood forests provide resources for animals and people alike.
Examine the concept of succession and learn how species interact from tiny lichens to towering oaks. Pond Ecology Grades 1-Adult Freshwater ponds are amazingly complex ecosystems. Uncover the web of life with us as we delve into how plants and animals compete for food and space as they avoid predators. Learn about the science of water quality testing and how humans can help or harm these fragile habitats. Copyright 2000 by Richard L. Becker and Theodore Roosevelt Sanctuary, Inc.
