The Amazing Life Of Food Webs

 The Amazing Life Of Food Webs

In Te Ngahere we have been learning about food webs. The food webs are the ecosystem but tells what eats what and what the predator is for that animal or producer. We got animals on the google drawing, we had to copy it. There were photos of animals from New Zealand on the google drawing. 

The animals we had were the kiwi, kereru, tui, possum, rats, stoats and invertebrates. We also had producers like the Kowhai tree and fruit. We had to point arrows to the animals that eats the fruit or animal. The stoat was the top of the food web because it eats the birds possums and rats. It keeps on hunting because it gets energy. The stoat gets energy by eating all of the animals and kept getting energy transferred to it. The stoat gets energy by the Kereru and possums. The possums and the Kereru eat the fruit and producers which both have energy. The Kereru and the possum gets energy transferred to them. They get energy by the plants because after they pollinate the get energy from the sun and water minerals underground. The arrows point to the animals because that’s the predator of the food. The stoat ate most things it eats the birds, rats, and possums. The arrows are different because the one down the bottom has colored lines to know what animal eats the food. My one has skinny arrows instead of thick ones. The one down the bottom is more confusing and has more lines going across.
