Animal Changes to the Environment
Just like plants, animals can also change their environment.
One way they do this is by eating the plants around them.
Have you ever seen a woodpecker?
It uses its strong beak to peck open tree trunks to find yummy insects.
That's one way it changes its environment.
Squirrels are amazing animals that can cut down trees.
They do this to build their homes and dams.
What about squirrels?
They love to dig holes to bury their food.
That's another way animals can change their environment.
Animals can also make changes when they build their homes.
Birds build nests in trees, and rabbits dig burrows in the ground.
Every animal plays a part in shaping its home.
Isn't nature incredible?
