Dingo: howl instead of bark, eats whatever it can find, the color of the dingo is based on where it lives ]]> 2018-03-13 05:39:10 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241209175 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210460 2018-03-13 05:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210460 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210512 2018-03-13 05:52:16 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210512 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210726 2018-03-13 05:53:58 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241210726 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211482 Parasitism: Wasp lays its eggs inside of the mantis eggs, feeds on larvae, then comes out of the egg

Mutualism: The desert bees depend on the cacti for food and the cacti depend of the bees to pollinate and help them reproduce

Commensalism: Cactus Wren makes its nest at the top of the cholla cactus to protect its young, cactus is not harmed ]]> 2018-03-13 06:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211482 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211846 2018-03-13 06:07:53 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211846 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211921 2018-03-13 06:08:47 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211921 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211970 2018-03-13 06:09:23 UTC https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241211970 1026248155 https://padlet.com/1026248155/qcgws86rfsuf/wish/241212098 One predator-prey relationship in the desert biome would be the dingo against anything it can find.
