It can either help it or completely ruin it, you probably have/going to learn/learned it in seventh grade.

If you introduce some animals, they will completely take over the habitat, such as Snakeheads in the Chesapeake bay. When they were introduced, they completely took over the environment by rapidly reproducing and eating all of the fish. This is called an invasive species. Invasive species are exotic animals that come from Another Country/state. Exotic species are completely fine, they are introduced and there is nothing wrong, they may even help the environment.

Why shouldn't we introduce foreign animals into Australia?

Because introducing foreign animals is almost never is a good thing. It alters the delicate ecosystem and balance of the area. For example, in the biggest tropical lake in the world (Lake Victoria in Uganda), they introduced a foreign fish into the water. And almost all of the small fish native to only that lake became prey to these fish. And they were big fish so a lot of fishermen started going to the lake. Less fish was less food for crocodiles and more people going to the lake meant that the odds of encountering a crocodile was higher. The result, not pleasant. Nobody knew that was going to be the effect of introducing the fish into there, but it was. One thing about introducing foreign animals is that it's easy to do so but it's almost impossible to bring them back out....


What is one characteristic of a healthy ecosystem?

It must have food, water, and room for animals to live in. If the area is too crowded animals may move on to a different ecosystem. Producers in an ecosystem are the living organisms which provide food for other animals. A good example of a producer is a plant. They can make their own food. Consumers are the animals that eat the food from producers or they eat consumers such as deer, rabbit. If you have same amount of producers and consumers you will have a healthy ecosystem.


How do ticks and flies impact the local ecosystem and human health?

This can affect the health of both wildlife and people, leading to potential disruptions in the ecosystem.
