Description
A biome is a community of living things made up of plants and animals that coexist in a special environment. This program examines the location and characteristics of the six biomes on the North American continent: the desert, the tundra, the coniferous forest, the deciduous forest, the grassland, and the tropics.
A natural balance exists within every biome, but this balance has been affected by our building of homes and cities and by mans careless farming and timber harvesting practices.
Many of these biomes have been altered by our ways of living and these changes remind us that we too are a part of the community of living things.
