What are the habitat requirements?
• Wildlife species have life requirements that must be met by their habitat to insure well-being

Feed Me!!!!• All living organisms require food
• Food provides the nutrients needed to live, grow, and reproduce
• Food gives you energy
Water… Where’s the Water!!
• Water is the basic need of life
• Water determines what species of plants will grow
• Plants will determine which animals will live there
Sources of Water in a habitat?
• Some wildlife animal species get most of their water through the food that they eat
• Many need a watering area for drinking once or twice a day
Cover Me…• Also referred to as shelter• Cover is needed for most wildlife species
• Vegetation or other material that provides safety in a habitat
• Animals use cover for nesting, resting, and protection
I need more SPACE!!!
• Area around an organism
• Space requirements vary with season, animal, and quality of the habitat
• Space Territory Home Range
