Activity 4: Home Sweet Home

Species that are introduced into nonnative environments can be beneficial or detrimental to the ecosystem. In this activity, students will identify “exotics” that have already been introduced into the North American environment and will determine their effect. Students will also gather information about a selected plant or animal species within a forest and determine its natural range.
