Observation #5


site: 40 acres behind my house
time: 10:30
temp: 43 degrees
weather: clear skys
soil: dry

In my area, it was dark out because i got home late so i couldnt see very much. What I could see though, was that the river run off was higher, little trees and bushes were coming up, that will eventually grow higher and taller, and will provide shelter, and food for the surrounding animals. I could hear the coyotes howling. The bear carcases that we got will produce food for the surrounding animals, and will decompose into the ground and form a fossile if it is there long enough. The other bears will problably get to it before it is decomposed into the ground, so its going to produce food for those other bears. The dead bears, will also make homes for for little bugs and bacterias. The river next to my site will help the parasites live well and reproduce into more and more parasites, which can help the enviornment by making algie and food for the ducks and fish there in the water. They can be bad for the enviornment also, by making other animals and organisms sick from eating them and the other bacterias in the waters.
