  1. GIANT KANGAROO RAT By: Juan and Mitch

  2. HABITAT They are found in sandy loam soils supporting sparse annual grass/forb vegetation, and marginally found in low-density alkali desert scrub.

  3. THINGS NEEDED TO SURVIVE... * It needs food. * They need level terrain and sandy loam soils for burrowing. * Water is apparently not necessary.

  4. What it eats, how it fits in the food web It eats seeds like peppergrass and filaree, it also eats green vegetables especially in the spring. Seeds are buried in small shallow holes in the winter and spring where they dry. It fits in the food web as a 1st order consumer because it eats plants and seeds, and it is food for other animals like the Kit fox and some snakes.

  5. Areas of the world where it lives They live in the western part of California, in places like the San Joaquin Valley, Carrizo Plain, and Panoche Valley

  6. What organizations are helping the species? The U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service is an organization that is helping the giant kangaroo rat from extinct from the biosphere

  7. How are the organizations helping? Organizations like the U.S. Fish And Wildlife Services are helping by breeding the animals in captivity and then letting them go back into their natural habitat, they are also creating or coming up with different campaigns to try and tell humans to stop destroying de Giant Kangaroo rat’s habitat.

  8. What can be done to help the species survive? We can help create more “communities” in different places so that the organisms can develop more organisms and this way try and make them come back again.

  9. Should we save the species? We should save the species because they are beautiful organisms that deserve to live like we all do, we think that any kind of species that we have in our world is useful and helpful to make this places very diverse and very beautiful.

  10. How can we save the species? We can save the species by preserving their natural habitats, stop destroying the place where they live. We can support all the stuff that the U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service are sponsoring , we can stop killing this organisms or hunt them for “fun”

  11. Is this possible in today's world? It is possible in today’s world, but it is very hard to achieve because even though we should save the species, not everyone wants to help or they are too lazy to do it. But we think that if we all try, we’ll be able to help this species survive.
