Examples: fungi (mushrooms or mold) and bacteria watkinsaj088 https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346187781 2019-03-28 15:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346187781 Detritivores also help speed up the decomposition process. Examples: worms, slugs, pillbug, mite, slug, flies, cockroaches, maggots, dung beetles watkinsaj088 https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346188482 2019-03-28 15:13:04 UTC https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346188482 Scavengers consume larger organisms and break them down into smaller bits which helps with decomposition. Examples: vultures, jackals, hyenas, crabs, seagulls, coyote, shrimp, and raccoons. watkinsaj088 https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346189341 2019-03-28 15:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/watkinsaj088/9z98uygmioyt/wish/346189341
