Question

A forest fire in Florida clears thousands of acres of trees. What are the consequences for the animal populations in the surrounding area?

Answer 1

The forest fire may have :
- eliminated homes/habitats of the nearby animal populations, forcing them to possibly migrate elsewhere and likely die .. Very harmful because each species has a special ecological niche.
- eliminated food resources (similar to above)

Hope that helps. :)

Answer 2

the forest fire eliminated some of the habitats for the animals and also limited teir food resources.

Answer 3

That is possible.
