There are plenty of things we cannot live without. Food. Water. Shelter. Bees. Yes, you have probably heard of the phrase “save the bees”, but what exactly does that mean? Bees can be adorable, right? You see them flying around patches of flowers, and what kind of world would it be without that? Well, it goes a little deeper than that. You see, bees are known as pollinators. They fly around flowers, get pollen stuck onto their bodies, fly to another flower, and spread that pollen onto that flower. These buzzing workers are what helps plant life grow. If they were to disappear from Earth, we may not be able to grow plants, effectively cutting off a huge chunk of our sustenance. Humans need food to survive, right? Well, we can thank bees for aiding in that department.
That’s the buzz on bees, but they can’t be the only ones taking care of us. Well, they aren’t. From the air to the ground, we now look at worms. We see them sometimes after it rains. They squirm around on the sidewalks while kids poke at them with sticks. They aren’t the most intimidating creature out there, but they play a big role in keeping us alive. Remember how bees help plants to grow by pollinating them? Well, worms work on the soil that provides nutrients for plants. They will dig around down there and help to make more nutrients available to anything that may grow around them. If you think about it, worms and bees work together to help get us our crops.
Worms also come in large numbers. There are about 2,700 species of worms, and in an acre of land, there can be more than a million earthworms around! This amount of earthworms can truly help transform an area from a plot of land to an area ready to yield large amounts of crops.
We are seeing a couple of farming animals here, so let’s explore another subject for a moment: climate change. Climate change is a hot topic (quite literally) in the world of science. But it can be hard to see just how fast the effects are taking place until it is too late. That is where butterflies come in. Yup, that’s right, butterflies are helping scientists study climate change. How does it work? Well, climate change affects butterflies too! Studies have found that European butterflies have slowly been moving north. This is due to changes in temperature. These butterflies prefer to stay in milder climates. By studying this, scientists are able to track the effects of climate change and provide possible ways to prevent it from further hurting the human race. Oh, and butterflies also help to spread pollen, so take that as two birds with one stone.
Speaking of migration in butterflies, let’s take a look at just how far they can travel. Take the monarch butterfly for example. These butterflies can travel up to 4,800 kilometers, or right around 3,000 miles, in order to reach their destination. In a single day, these determined butterflies are able to travel 160 kilometers, or about 100 miles, before calling it a day. Monarch butterflies truly are dedicated to their long journeys!
Staying on the subject of climate change, check out frogs! Much like butterflies, these animals help researchers know when it is time to take action and help the environment. When the skin of a frog starts to change color, that is a sign to check in on the habitat they are living in. It could be a major indicator of contamination issues near them. Whether it is in the water or on land, the frog can detect it. These bio-indicators help us humans out and without them, we may live in toxic and harmful environments.
A frog’s skin is actually quite an interesting thing. You may be familiar with how slimy it appears, but why is it like that? Well, a frog’s skin is covered with mucous glands. These mucous glands cover a layer of moist and permeable skin underneath. A frog not only breathes through their lungs, but they can also breathe through their skin! The mucous layer on their skin helps protect them from injuries while also keeping them moist. So this complex skin is what helps detect a toxic environment!
There are several ways us humans need help surviving. We’d be absolutely doomed without some of these animals. We’ve just scratched the surface when it comes to the helping hands of the wilderness. Let’s get even deeper into what animals can do for us.
Have you ever heard an adult telling a kid to “quit monkeying around”? This next fact may make you want to actually start monkeying around! Primates are often studied due to their high intelligence.
