प्रश्न
Correlate wildlife and natural vegetation in India and Brazil.
उत्तर
- The habitat of every animal is unique.
- In ecology, a habitat is the kind of natural environment in which a particular species of organism lives. Different animals and plants require different living conditions to survive. They live in those places where they find food, shelter, etc.
- Accordingly, the wildlife of any country is dependent on its natural vegetation. Animals that prey on the plant-eating animals also live in the forests. Thus, many food chains developed in the forests. Forests or grasslands are the habitats for many animals. It is basically due to plants that there are many animals.
- For e.g. In the Gir forests of India, along with lion, herbivores animals are also found. Similarly, in the rivers, estuaries and coastal areas, turtles, crocodiles and gavials (gharial) are found. In Brazil, near the Amazon River Basin, in the Evergreen forests regions, tall trees are seen and on these trees Tamarin is found.
In this way, the wildlife and natural vegetation in India and Brazil are correlated with each other.
