How Does Urban Sprawl Affect Wildlife

Effects of Urban Sprawl on Wildlife Imagine yourself driving down the street in the middle of your suburban neighborhood and all of a sudden a deer jumps out in front of your vehicle causing you to slam on the brakes. You sit in your car wondering why there was an animal in the middle of you neighborhood. You should ask yourself: Is urban sprawl effecting our wildlife? Urban sprawl is definitely effecting our wildlife, but many species are learning to adapt to living so close to humans. As I began looking for resources I found that there was a vast amount of knowledge on the topic. I found a variety of different resources that I could use to aid me in the writing of my research paper. I found that the vast majority of my resources were
After I had gotten this far I had decided that it would be wise to have someone check over my work. In doing so I found that I had made a few crucial mistakes in writing this paper. I found out that I need to incorporate more of a narrative format. As soon as I corrected some of my earlier mistakes I began to look for more information on my topic. I began to look for information on specific species that were moving closer to the human population. One species I found that was particularly interesting was mountain lions. They move in to urban areas to prey on people 's house pets that are found outdoors for instance dogs and cats. In doing this they can be a threat to the human population as well. From my own personal experience back in Montana I know that there has been more than a few times where a mountain lion has been spotted near the elementary school. In these cases school officials hold the students in the building until they know that the animal is safely away from endangering the children or when Fish Wildlife and Parks officials have hunted down the animal to safely relocate the
They were also found to usually have two to three broods while blackbirds in the forest only have one to two. Urban blackbirds tended to live one to two years longer than rural ones (Luniak 2004). In contrast those individuals living in the city were found to have a higher infestation of parasites and considerably higher blood parameters. They also were found to be victims of collisions with objects, for instance traffic, glass, and wires. In searching for more useful resources, I began to realized that the resources that I was finding were drifting more and more away from my topic. It is here where I began to think of how I was going to draw my research paper to a conclusion. I started of looking up examples of how a research paper of this type was concluded. I also asked for help from people who had briefly read over my paper. After doing my best to find the correct way to wrap up my research paper this is what I came up
