https://padlet.com/achristy2/hippos_in_colombia2 What is important for us to understand about hippos in order for us to produce solutions for this problem? en-us 2018-03-05 12:06:46 UTC 2025-10-30 15:57:50 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/achristy2/hippos_in_colombia2/wish/238290320 To be able to produce solutions for this problem we need to understand what food chain there are part of. How is there original habitat and all the aspects of there habitat. from what tree branch of animals they come from.  How will it poo will affect our ecosystem in Colombia. Is the climate is going to affect them.

1. Food source 
2.Preys (If it is found in Colombia)
3.Predators
4.Behavior
5.Habitat
6.Climate
7.Life spam
After investigating these 7 topics we must conclude its overall consequence when inserted in the food chain. Whether is negative or positive. Also we should look to the future because maybe we have 16 sustainable hippos but how will we know how many hippos the ecosystem can sustain without sacrificing other species, the quality of the environment etc. Lastly how will this affect humans both in the availability of food, transport, habitat etc.

New questions:

1. What other animals are in that ecosystems.

2. Will Colombia provide what they need.

3. The amount of its growth. 

4. How much hippos can be sustained by the ecosystems they live in without sacrificing or affecting other species.

We need to learn more about their original ecosystem and why they like staying in the ecosystem in colombia instead of their ecosystem. Did they adapt to the ecosystem in Colombia?

 affect their survival. Also, how and why can hippos affect other species, the environment, and even humans. 
Will the resources in Colombia be adequate for the hippo?
What other organisms live within the hippo's ecosystem?
Where are hippos found?

Also knowing how many years they live, about how many babies they have and to what regions they go when its winter or summer.

We need to see also what is the species pray so we can see how that other pray can get affected. how that specie will affect its population negatively and find a solution to that problem so they cant get extinct.
How will it affect positively the ecosystem. How many hippos there are in Colombia?
How fast do they reproduce?
What other species are in that ecosystem?
Do they have enough resources?
Conditions they need to live?
Where are they located?]]> 2018-03-05 19:02:40 UTC https://padlet.com/achristy2/hippos_in_colombia2/wish/238291501 https://padlet.com/achristy2/hippos_in_colombia2/wish/238291507 We need to know their environmental needs and how their environment was

- have the river change color?
