Habitat Requirements Wildlife Animals

shared by morales5853 on 07 Nov 14 - No Cached

Habitat for any wild animal must provide: cover (shelter) from weather and predators; food and water for nourishment; and space to obtain food, water, and to attract a mate.

  Animals of course decide to live were they know they have all the necessary things. Once they are adapted to their habitat, they certainly know there are beasts they should protect from.

South Carolina does not have pronghorn antelope because we do not have the wide-open spaces that these animals require.

  All animals only live were they have their own space and security thats why elephants don' t live in the forest were there are many trees instead they live in Africa in the open space.

Wildlife do need things in their environment to hide under, but cover also includes having something to hide behind, or some type of obstruction between the animal and a potential predator.

  If a animal is being chased by his predator, he can cover itself with the predator of the animal that is chasing him and he can be safe only if the animal that he is hiding with doesn't eat him.

If a landowner removes or changes the amount or specific type of cover available to wildlife in that area, the local wildlife population may be affected. If a landowner decides to allow a forested property to mature, bobwhite quail populations may decline because feeding, nesting, and brood cover have been removed.
