Why do animals need burrows?
In general, burrowing animals of any kind loosen up the soil as they travel through it, which gives "breathing room" for the roots of plants to expand into. Burrowing animals help plants grow.
How do burrowing animals enrich the soil with substances that the soil needs?
Small burrowing animals, such as voles, dig tunnels in the ground. Burrowing loosens small rocks and sediment in soil. The animal pushes these small pieces of rock to the surface. Once these small rocks and sediment are out of the ground, other weathering processes act on them. Hope this paragraph answered your question! From: RocioSmart4235
