The ones that are set free are eating bird and turtle nests all through out the state. The government are letting people kill them to eradicate them. They can tolerate cold so they can spread farther and can be brought as pet. About two dozen have been spotted in Broward and Palm Beach counties. ]]> 2017-01-09 17:27:58 UTC https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146056357 bflood2020 https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146117420 http://myfwc.com/wildlifehabitats/nonnatives/birds/scarlet-ibis/
Description: Member of the ibis and spoonbill family. Have long long, downward-curved bills to eat. Adults can be 30 inches long and can be 3 pounds. 
Invasion: Although introduced Sacred Ibises have only been found in southern Florida, scientists believe that the flexible habitat requirements of this species could allow them to expand their range to include other areas of Florida. 
Food: They live on a diet of beetles, shrimps, insects, molluscs, small fish, crayfish and amphibians
Habitat:They inhabit wetlands and other areas of shoreline
Solution: The government is moving out all scarlet ibises from Florida. Not killing them ]]> 2017-01-09 20:35:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146117420 bflood2020 https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146297531 An Ecological Footprint is area one persons need of land and water. The footprint part of it means that the footprint stays on the ground which means your footprint on the earths care with say. The biggest area of my resource consumption is service, such as health care, restaurants, entertainment, government, and military. For me, it takes 5.7 planets to provide enough resources for me, and it takes 25,3 global acres to support my lifestyle. To minimize my footprint i eat organic food, not drive all the time, and recycle. To increase my footprint i go to restaurants all the time, sometimes trash to much, and people take the bus. I could stop throwing away things in the trash and recycle]]> 2017-01-10 16:19:19 UTC https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146297531 bflood2020 https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146387385 http://www.inspirationalstories.com/poems/our-failed-stewardship-raymond-a-foss-poem/
Our failed stewardship
blight upon the earth
scars on the land
pollution in the air, the water
climate on the brink
No time for rest
we claim sovereignty over all
forgetting we servants, stewards
gardeners of the master
the one who created all
We were to tend the land
to nurture one another
to cherish the gift of creation
and remember the creator
Taking our sabbath, our rest
for the people and the land
all to be cared for
leaving the rest to God

This poem is talking about how stewardship is trying to encourage people. We are saying that we should leave it for god to fix. and we are forgetting who has kept this earth alive even after all the things we have done. ]]> 2017-01-10 20:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146387385 bflood2020 https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146691022 Currently we are feeding tarpon. The tarpon can grow to be 8 feet and 280 pounds. We came to feed the tarpon because they were hungry and they needed food and it is a cool attraction. ]]> 2017-01-12 03:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146691022 bflood2020 https://padlet.com/bflood2020/651iq7kxwaq5/wish/146691921 The Rainbow River has caves that fish and places where fish can hide.
