habitat assessments

Habitat assessments are evaluations of an area's natural environment to understand its quality and suitability for wildlife. This process involves examining factors like the presence of native plants, water availability, shelter, and food sources. The goal is to determine how well the habitat supports different species and to identify any threats or changes that could harm its health. These assessments help inform conservation efforts, land management decisions, and efforts to protect endangered species, ensuring the habitat remains resilient and supportive of biodiversity.
