droughts affect animals because they would not be able to have much water which could lead to them dieing. Plants are affected because they will die and people will not have much food that grows.

There would be lack of food because, crops, and animals need water to grow to be harvested/butchered. If it was in a third world country, there would be a high death total, because it would be hard for enough water to be shipped over to spread throughout the country, resulting in death.

How does drought affect ecosystem?
Drought often affects an ecosystem because many living organisms that require water to survive often die out. Once this happens the land then becomes barren and uninhabitable. Although in other cases the animal and plant life of the drought affected area may grow to evolve more with their dry environment. They might begin to store more water in their bodies, or be able to conserve how much water is regulated throughout their body as well.
