- Why are woodlands important?
The woodlans are important because contain trees that absorb carbon dioxide and transform into oxygen ,we needed oxygen to live. They are important too because created food, stop the erosion, filter water,prevents floods,moderate climate,shelter animals....
- What do you expect to find there?
I expect to find different types of animals (insect, mammals...) and different types of plants.
- What are their main threats?
I think that their main threats are the humans, because we burn the woodlands and we cut the trees too. Other threats are the grazing, clearance,neglect, rubbish and invasion by non native species.
