The flat lorax is pictured at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, next to a couple boat haulers connected to various trucks. As you can see in the picture, there are no actual boats on the boat haulers which means the only logical conclusion is that they are somewhere roaming in the waters of the Everglades. These empty boat haulers were only a few of the dozen I encountered on this day. The numerous boats driving around on the Everglades indicate that there is a huge amount of fuel and toxins going into the everglades due to the fuel running these boats. Harmful elements within these toxins come from various opening in the boat such as the engine and then end up in the Everglades as a result of this. This in turn will not only cause pollution in the water but also cause the deaths and mutations of numerous species of fish and other wildlife as well as harming the plants around.

This picture was taken at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge in Parkland, Florida. The National Wildlife Refuge System, within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, manages a national network of lands and waters set aside to conserve America's fish, wildlife, and plants. This includes the northern remains of the Everglades ecosystem that can be found at the end of Loxahatchee Road, where this photo was taken. This relates to APES because this reservation is protecting hundreds of different species and wildlife in the Everglades, preserving the Everglades ecosystem as a whole. It allows for, at least, part of this ecosystem to continue surviving as it is faced against human interference.

The flat lorax is pictured next to a pile of debris on the side of the road, a result from the immense winds and rain caused by Hurricane Irma. This relates to APES because the branches are an example of how hurricanes can have an enormous impact on forests and other vegetation. The ferocity of hurricanes are able to uproot entire trees which are also homes to tons of different species. This massive amount of dead branches and trees shows how hurricanes can not only affect a couple of trees, but an entire area. The destruction of vegetation in an area causes a loss of habitat for wildlife which then could lead to the moving of certain species to a different area because of the lack of habitat which in turn causes a huge negative impact in the environment.

The flat lorax is pictured next to an owl pellet composed of the indigestible remains of organisms. The picture was taken in a classroom setting where the owl pellets were used in an experiment to show the flow of energy. This relates to APES because it shows the flow of energy and the 2nd law of thermodynamics which states that when energy changes from one form to another, we always end up with lower-quality or less usable energy than we started with. The pellet is an example of how in a food chain, the chemical energy stored in biomass is transferred from one trophic level to another and the percentage of usable chemical energy transferred as biomass decreases from one trophic level to another.
