- Description
- This video segment adapted from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department explores the role of the wetlands in our environment, including providing habitats for wildlife, acting as natural water filters, and playing a part in the greater water cycle.
- Description
- What are some characteristics of wetlands? What types of animals depend on wetlands? What can humans do to protect and restore wetlands? What do you think is the most convincing argument in favor of people's need to preserve wetlands? Explain your answer. How did the disappearance of wetlands contribute to the damages caused by Hurricane Katrina?
- Description
- In this video segment adapted from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, learn about the value of the wetlands ecosystems. Wetlands are essential habitats for plants and wildlife and a critical part of the water cycle. Yet they are under threat, largely due to the needs of a growing human population. The video suggests that humans must find a way to balance their needs while protecting and restoring wetlands.
