because without interference succession would occur and it would become deciduous forest which is the climatic climax. The chalk grassland at box hill have more biodiversity than a rainforest and contain many endangered species including the small blue butterflies and man orchids. These are specific to the chalk grasslands and there only being 19 sites of chalk grasslands shows just how rare the species are. In the creation of this ecosystem human interference is far more important because if natural

African lions play a big role in the ecosystem. They are at the top of the food chain and are responsible for 85% of predation in their habitat. They prey on herbivores such as buffalo‚ antelope and zebras. The African lion’s biome is in the tropical grassland and their habitat is the grassy plains of the African savanna. Without the lion‚ the ecosystem would be unbalanced and unstable. The African lion‚ being at the top of the food chain‚ interacts with other organisms in many different ways. They’re

Swift Fox‚ Vulpes velox‚ of the Great Plains. This organism is found throughout the United States‚ residing mostly in grassland ecosystems. Grassland ecosystems have seen a great decline throughout the years and receive very little protection against human development and urbanization. The distribution of Swift Foxes has also declined along with the reduction of viable grassland habitat‚ leading to fragmentation of populations. For their experiment‚ they took various blood hair and tissue samples
