This activity will help students to understand and graph population change over time according to habitat availability. Students will discover that many factors affect the ability of deer or other wildlife to survive over time. Weather conditions, disease, predators, pollution and habitat destruction are some examples. Habitat is the key to wildlife survival and population size. Habitat is defined as food, cover, and water. If any one of these is lacking or restricted in availability, wildlife numbers are reduced. In this exercise, students learn that organism numbers will be governed by the availability of habitat elements.
