How Animals and Trees Help Each Other | Team Trees

The video explores the relationship between various animals and trees, highlighting how beavers, tree frogs, porcupines, water dragons, parrots, and tortoises interact with and depend on trees. Beavers are keystone species that enhance biodiversity by selectively felling trees. Arboreal animals like tree frogs and porcupines use camouflage and other adaptations to thrive in trees. Water dragons rely on trees for safety and food, while parrots and tortoises play crucial roles in seed dispersal, aiding in tree propagation and ecosystem health.

How do beavers contribute to biodiversity in their environment?

• By eating all types of trees equally

• By selectively cutting down certain tree species

• By building nests in trees

• By planting new trees

What is a common adaptation among arboreal animals like tree frogs and porcupines?

• Thick fur for warmth

• Sharp claws for digging

• Camouflage to blend with tree bark

• Ability to fly

What unique behavior do water dragons exhibit when threatened?

• They jump into water from trees

• They climb higher into the tree

• They dig underground

• They change color to blend in

How do parrots help in the growth of new trees?

• By building nests in tree branches

• By eating only the leaves

• By cutting down old trees

• By dispersing seeds while eating fruit

What role do red-footed tortoises play in their ecosystem?

• They provide shelter for other animals

• They act as predators to small insects

• They disperse seeds through their droppings

• They build nests in tree trunks
