In 1944 US coast guard brought 29 reindeer to St Mathew island in Alaska . US coast left the island but left the reindeer behind. With no predators to kill them and island full of lichen their favourite food, they reproduced. The harsh winter killed most of them and the only reindeer left were unable to reproduce. Slowly they died. It shows that predators keep a balance in the ecosystem.

Comic Book

The comic states that in 1944 a group of 19 men had established a long range radio navigation system on St. Matthew island. Over there, 29 reindeers were left behind as a backup food source. In a few months the system failed and the men were forced to leave the island. The reindeers had a fresh supply of lichen which were very nutritious and the population kept growing up to 6000. They were fit an healthy because of the lichen. However, these 6000 reindeers kept on consuming more and more lichen and eventually it all finished so they were forced to eat sedge grass. This did not keep them healthy and was not enough nutrition. During winter, it was hard for them to survive with the lack of food they had. Only a measly 42 were left. They eventually went extinct.

The comic begins with a group of riendeers who are beginning to adapt to the new habitat. In 1944 these 29 reindeers were left behind with a supply of lichen. Then an ecosystem is created and the population increases because the reindeers have adapted to the habitat and have reproduced and created a larger number of reindeers. This increaded the population by a large sum of numbers. The Island had no predators so they bred easily. In 1957 the humans retuned for a research task and said that the reindeers were in excellent health thanks to the lichen.

in 1944 19 people leave 29 reindeers on st mathews island. Since their land was full of lichen, their normal food the and with no natural predators their food chain was not disturbed hence the population  spiked up to 1350 from just 29 and they had healthy amount of fat meaning they were consuming excess of food.
Later in 6 years they revisited the island to see the population spike again up to 6000, since the population was so high there was less food left for all of them, they now had low fat and their food chain was disturbed due to their own selfishness of eating more food. consequently when they revisited the island a few years later they only found but bones of the reindeers and 41 female reindeers with only 1 male reindeer left.

In 1944, a few reindeers were left stranded on an island because the men forgot to take them back home. The small group survived on lichen and their number grew. A few years later, researchers visited St Matthew island and found that there were 1350 of them. The researchers revisited in 1963 and there were 6000 reindeers. However, in a few years, all the reindeers died out due to lack of resources. They ran out of grass and lichen and so slowly died from starvation or cold.

This is about a group of 19 men who estabilished a long radio navigation system. 29 reindeers were sent for food resources. The reindeer leave and the men are left behind. They found themselves aloen with their favourite food, lichen. The reindeers started to breed. In 1957 the men came back.

The 29 Reindeer were brought to Saint Matthews island. The Reindeer were then left behind. Over the years, the had a fresh supply of lichen which made the number of Reindeer go up to 6000. They were fit and healthy due to their nutritious diet. Due  to these 6000 Reindeer eating a lot of lichen, their lichen finished which forced them to eat sedge grass. This was not enough nutrition for them and only a mere 42 Reindeer were left. An Eco-System should be balanced with both predators and prey.

In 1994 a long-range radio navigation system was established on St. Matthew Island. The crew was made up of 19 men and 29 reindeers were released on the island as a food source. The station was decommissioned within months and people left, leaving the reindeers behind. Since the island was abundant in lichen and had no natural predators the reindeers were able to thrive. When humans visit the island on a research trip in 1957, they find that the population has ballooned from 29 to 1350 individuals. The reindeers were in excellent health due to their nutritious diet. 6 years later on another visit they find that the population has increases to 6000 reindeers. Since the reindeers have mostly finished the lichen and are now eating sedge grass their health has slightly deteriorated. When researchers return in 1966 they find skeletons with only 42 remaining reindeer. By 1980 the reindeers had completely died out on the island.

The comic tells us about how 19 reindeers were let loose on St Matthew island and how they lived in their ecosystem. About there food sources, how they hide from predators

# data[].attributes.body
29 reindeers are released onto St Matthew Island. Since there were no predators and there was plenty of their food, lichen, the reindeers were able to reproduce easily. Researchers visit the island again and find that the reindeers' population immensely grew since they were able to reproduce at ease. Eventually the reindeers run out of lichen to eat and they struggle to fight for food, causing them to lose weight and they die. This causes the population to decrease very quick. Eventually, the population died out.

COMIC SUMMARY
11 March 2021

In 1944,  29 reindeers were left behind on an Island. The Island had an abundance of Lichen. There were no predators, hence no predators meant that the food chain wasn't complete, which could lead to the reindeers dying. In 1957, the reindeers went from 29 to 1350 in population. Six years later, the population raised up to 6,000 reindeers. In 1966, the population  dropped and more than 99% of them died. There was a competition for food, due to which the population couldn't survived and they couldn't reproduce. The island was big but the resources were only enough...

This was a test made by the American government and it was an experiment.The comic informs us that due to lack of predators/enemies and an abundant amount of food and resources,their growth rate rapidly increases.

Its a comic giving us lesson that the environment, the nature works and grows in a cycle. If there is a break or a gap the cycle will break causing deaths and loss.

In 1944 19 men established a radio navigate system on st.Matthew island. 29 reindeers were left behind on an island, for backup food source. Since the land was full on lichen, the population grew from 29-1350. 6 years later researchers revisited the island and saw that the population was now 6000. Since the population was so high there was less food which is why there was less fat. The food chain was disturbed because of their own selfishness for eating more food. In 1966 when researchers revisited the island once again, they only found 42 reindeers, 41 female and 1 infertile male reindeer. Since there was no way to reproduce the reindeer population ended completely by the 1980s. This story tells us that the food chain is really important and if it is disturbed the organisms consuming it will eventually die off.

A few people left some reindeers and their were no people to kill them. It shows that because there were no people to kill the animals the population grew. The reindeers got more in number over time because no people were there to kill them.

Some people left reindeer on an island with alot of resources.All animals need food to survive and as long as they have to food and resources to do so, the population will excel. During tough times like the winter the reindeer could not survive.

Comic Book - Reindeers

In 1944 a group of 19 men established a long range radio navigate system on St.Matthew Island. 29 reindeers were released for backup food source. Within months the system decommissioned and the men leave the island. The reindeers were left behind. However, the reindeers found
themselves with their favourite food lichen. There were no predators so the reindeers bred easily. In 1957 humans came back to the island for a research task. In just 13 years the reindeer population sky-rocketed to 1,350. The reindeers were in excellent health and fat from the lichen. In 1963, the humans came back and the population went up to 6,000! The dense herd's huge appetite eliminated the lichen, so they had to survive on grass. The reindeers' body weight dropped due to the less food. In 1966, the human came back once again to find the island littered with reindeer skeletons. The population went from 6,000 to 42. 41 females and 1 male. The habitat's resources had grown smaller and smaller and the population had been unable to survive the winters, so in a matter of months the population plummeted. The island was so big, yet its resources only so many.

The comic begins with a detailed explanation of a herd of reindeer's who are beginning to adapt to this new habitat.Taking place in 1944 these 29 reindeer's are left behind with a supply of lichen.An ecosystem is soon created and the population increases,however there were no predators.This is because the reindeer's have adapted to this perticular habitat and have now reproduced creating a larger number of reindeer's increasing the population by a large sum of numbers.St.Matthews Island had no predators and so the reindeer's bred easily.In 1957 the humans returned for a research task.According to their research the reindeers were in excellent health thanks to the lichen.As time flew by
