Habitat preservation poster

A habitat is the natural home where a plant or animal lives, grows, and finds everything it needs — food, water, shelter, and space. Healthy habitats support biodiversity: a wide variety of living things. When habitats are damaged or destroyed, species can become endangered or even extinct. In this project lesson you will create a poster that shows the threats habitats face and the conservation actions we can take.
