Many different species share our watersheds and depend on clean water. Frogs and fish represent only a few of the interesting wildlife species that can be found in a watershed.
Scientists often study wildlife to determine the qualify of our environment.
Trees, plants and other vegetation also share our watersheds. The water they draw through their roots help them grow. Trees and plants also play an important role in preventing soil erosion. Vegetation prevents soil from washing into our streams and rivers. People depend on clean water every day.
