What did you find in your owl pellet?
Define community. What can you infer about the nature of the community in which the owl lives?
What have you learned about the ecosystem in which the owl lives? Describe at least four abiotic and biotic factors.
How can scientists use owl pellets to study small mammals in a specific ecosystem?
Other birds of prey produce pellets as well, and the contents are dictated by where the bird lives. What would you expect to find in the pellet from a shorebird, such as a gull?
Create a diagram of a food web with the owl as the uppermost trophic level. Include at least five levels total.
