This caused ponds to become over crowed with ducks and left them no bushes to use as their habitat. Now ducks use people bushes outside of their homes. This is dangerous for ducks because of house pets like dogs and cats. Ducks are also having to cross streets and sidewalks to get to the water that they need to help them survive. They could be hit by cars or have contact with people who may not respect them and their space. ]]> 2016-03-22 14:45:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kschemmel2/PBL2016M/wish/102221877 https://padlet.com/kschemmel2/PBL2016M/wish/102224420 What used to be their habitat? ]]> 2016-03-22 14:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kschemmel2/PBL2016M/wish/102224420 kschemmel2 https://padlet.com/kschemmel2/PBL2016M/wish/102225501 Can you think of a specific example of habitats being destroyed by building homes?
