Vernal pools has three syllables.
Vernal pools support a variety of animal species, including amphibians like salamanders and frogs, invertebrates such as fairy shrimp and water beetles, and birds like red-winged blackbirds and mallards. These species rely on vernal pools for breeding and feeding due to their unique water levels and seasonal nature.
It is difficult to provide an exact number of vernal pools that are left, as they are constantly changing due to natural events and human activities. However, vernal pools are considered to be a threatened habitat, with many having been lost due to urban development, agriculture, and other human impacts. Efforts are being made to conserve and protect remaining vernal pools.

San Diego fairy shrimp are threatened by habitat loss, altered hydrology of their habitat and off-highway vehicle activity. They are listed as Endangered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. By 1998, their habitat (vernal pools) was reduced to less than five percent of its historical extent (USFWS 1998). Remaining vernal pools are threatened by continuted urban development, increases or decreases in water flow into the pools, and physical destruction of habitat by vehicles. San Diego fairy shrimp occur in vernal pools in mesas from Northern Baja California through Orange County; Most of the historical vernal pool habitat was converted to residential development.
Fairy shrimp live in vernal pools. They are approximately one inch long, and related to lobsters. They swim upside down so they can eat the algae on the water's surface.
