The Rhino horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine.This has led to the animal being hunted in its natural habitat.Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia, most rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves.Their numbers have rapidly decreased in the last 50 years, and the ani...
well. When comparing the behaviors of California sea lions that are trained to those that are not, it is notable that the latter do not look for food themselves. Also, the female sea lions did not bother with their young ones like the case of those that exist in the natural environment....
Polar bears living in a warming habitat are an example of rapid adaptation. This is because polar bears have lost their habitat due to global warming. Feral cats can roam over a long distances and are more active than cats present at homes usually. Chapter...
Let's review. Every species has a role that it plays in nature, defined by a combination of the organism's behaviors, habitat, and interaction with other species. The role that a species plays is called its ecological niche, which not only includes what it eats and where it lives, but ...
In this lesson, you are going to learn how scientists investigate the homes of plants and animals for various reasons. What is a Habitat Map? Ben has been researching different types of maps, and he has come across a map he's never seen before. He knew there were maps of streets ...
