Wetlands

What do you see in this wetland?

What do you see in this wetland area? How does this area provide protection to animals? How do you know? What is your evidence? What would happen to the animals if this area had trash in it? Image: http://jcho.masgc.org/

The Pearl River is only one part of the wetlands of Mississippi The Pearl River is only one part of the wetlands of Mississippi. Can you find the Pearl River on the map? Hint: The Pearl River borders Louisiana. Image: http://www.wildlifemiss.org/Habitat/Bottomland.aspx

Mississippi River Basin Look at this picture. What do you see? Several different rivers and streams flow into the Mississippi River. There are wetland areas near the rivers and streams. Eventually, where does all the water flow into? Retrieved 3-5-16: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/65/bf/b0/65bfb016b6f7e5c55b7a3876caeca0d3.jpg Gulf of Mexico
