Biomes and The Food Production

Thirteen bird species and ninety-six species of reptiles and frogs are found across the Flinders semi-arid biome. The mammal species that live there are yellow-footed rock-wallabies, emus, flinders ranges worm-lizard and kangaroos. There are animals in my biome that are used by humans. For example, Kangaroos and Emus are farmed for their meat. Restaurants serve kangaroo and emu steaks on their menus. Supermarkets have kangaroo meat for sale. Kangaroo meet is also used as pet food for cats and

The aboriginal Australians have survived thousands of years on what they call a hunter gather diet. The diet consists of emu, lizards, moths, kangaroo and snakes as well as berries, roots and honey which are referred as ‘bush tucker’. Seafood also had a big part in aboriginal culture, which most of the sea life was caught with spears and hooks made from branches, rocks etc. When the British settlers came in 1770 they unfortunately didn’t like or understand the aboriginal diet. So in response to this they decided to make a more familiar European diet. Sheep, cattle and other familiar European animals were introduced throughout Australia and familiar crops were planted as well. Flour was used to make bread and damper (thicker bread which was

This biome is large community of plants and animals..Also, biomes, such as the forest, freshwater, and marine,may have more consequences . The most imports biomes are the freshwater and marine because those biomes help us get water to drink and for the crops and the marine biome is also important the study of the between people and the physical environment of the sea.

At the south of the country we can see another biome called temperate Rain forest. Here we would find a more typical rainforest. These types of rainforests are usually very humid places with lots of wildlife, exotic animals and plants.

A biome is a large geographical area of distinctive plant and animal groups, which are adapted to that particular environment. The climate and geography of a region determines what type of biome can exist in that region. Major biomes include deserts, forests, grasslands, tundra, and several types of aquatic environment. As can see on the topography map, The Goulburn has two Biomes:-

My biome is the Taiga. One place the Taiga can be found is Oslo,Norway. Some abiotic factors in the Taiga are rain, sunlight, soil, temperature, and wind. Some biotic factors are moose, black bears, wolves, moss, and pine trees. Those abiotic and biotic factors interact a lot. There are four levels of organization. They are species, population, community, and ecosystem. An ecosystem is all the biotic and abiotic factors in a specific place. An example of a ecosystem in the Taiga is spruce trees, pine trees, mushrooms, owls, and bears. Those are only a few of the abiotic and biotic factors that make up the Taiga.

Around 65 million years ago, the climate in Australia was cooler and wetter than it is now, with great, shallow seas in central Australia due to it being joined to Antarctica allowing for sea-living creatures such as the Plesiosaurs and Iscthyosaurs. However, as Australia started to separate from Antarctica and began moving northward roughly 23 million years ago, the climate became warmer and drier with temperate rainforest started to form. These great lush forests fed and protected large numbers of animals that were dependent on it for food and shelter. Central parts of Australia that was once seas and rivers, soon gave way to sand dunes and arid conditions. As of this change, vegetation type also changed, with species that were more tolerant

The grasslands can have very different climates than other places and there can also be just one climate throughout the year.The grasslands have really hot summers and really cold

The biome I chose was the tropical rain forest. The tropical rain forest has lots of dangerous and interesting animals. The tropical rain forest has a 70-85F weather all year long. The climate is warm but damp and wet. Tropical rain forests can be found between 30N- 30S. The tropical rain forest is full of life providing a habitat for lots of plants, flowers, and trees. The rain forest has a lot of dangers such as rainfall= 80-400 inches of rainfall per year. The tropical rain forest is a great place that is filled with life and is one of the most beautiful biomes in the world.

Feral camels were originally imported into Australia from India, Afghanistan & Arabia for use in construction during colonisation of parts of central & Western Australia. The population now exceeds 1 million. Camels ingest 80% of the plant species available leaving little of local indigenous people or native herbivorous fauna. Their soft padded feet mean they don’t erode the earth like feral horses or cattle however they can destabilise dune-crests which may lead to erosion.

The savanna biome is an area that has a very dry season and then a very wet season.Because of the extended periods of wet and dry climate in the savanna biome, the availability of food changes throughout the year.Climate is very important in the savanna biome. If the rainfall decreases and/or the temperature increases, the animals and plants will not be able to continue to survive.

The Tundra biome and desert biome display very similar traits. They both contain little to no life, harsh conditions, and extreme temperatures. Both of the biomes are considered deserts when considering both receive very little precipitation. Tundras are much colder than deserts. Organisms that live in tundras are highly adapted to very little food and

If someone is looking for a magical adventure to a winter wonderland, point them north in the direction of the wonderful biome, the Taiga! There is an opportunity to travel the world as the taiga stands as the largest land biome in the world; locations include Canada, Alaska, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Russia, and many more countries. Also known as the boreal forest, the taiga is home to a variety of plant and animal life for an adventurer to experience. These areas experience half of the year in the summer and winter seasons; depending on the season, it has a moderate amount of precipitation and warm or freezing temperatures. The taiga biome, located at fifty and sixty degrees north, holds a wide variety of plants and animals with many adaptations to survive the cold climate and a moderate amount of precipitation.

The savanna biome is mostly made up of grass but there are a few trees. Because of the availability of grass in the savanna, there are many grazing animals who take advantage of this abundant food supply. The savanna biome is rich with herbivores such as elephants, zebras, gazelles, and buffalo. The largest part of the savanna biome is located in Africa.

A savanna is a grassland scattered with shrubs and isolated trees, which can be found between a tropical rainforest and desert biome. Because of the availability of grass in the savanna, there are many grazing animals who take advantage of this abundant food supply. Because of this abundance, the savanna biome is rich
