It's Ba-ack!!!!!

Hi guys!

Here it is again....

... now I want you to actually make your predictions about what this animal may be. Review your classmates' questions and answers on the earlier blog post and the picture above. Do any other research you might like to do, as well, using whatever sources you find helpful.

Once you feel confident that you know what this is, answer the following questions on a sheet of paper:

1. What is this thing?
2. What, specifically, does it eat?
3. What limiting factors affect its population?
4. What animals compete with it for food and other resources?
5. What niche does it occupy (what is its role in its ecosystem)?
6. What detail in the picture or clue from a classmate was most helpful in deciding what it was?

We will discuss the questions and your answers on Friday, January 18, and read an article about this creature.

Happy researching!
