H...Hi Lana, this is a good start for this question. Here is some feedback!<br /><br />Home ranges are definitely areas where animals move on a daily basis (to find resources by foraging, hunting, finding water, etc). They don't defend it against members of the same species they meet in their home range (unlike territories, which they may defend). <br /><br />However, while they're out in their home range (depending on the species) there still might be some competition for resources, or they could still encounter predators trying to eat them and have to defend themselves aggressively! <br /><br />Your paragraph on how rainfall affects the habitat (by the higher rainfall changing the habitat to a wetter, more healthy, lush forest that can support more life that could be food for the baboons) and therefore affects the size of the home range (smaller, because the resources are denser). <br /><br />You could also talk about intraspecific competition between members of the same species in each baboon group.Nicola Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227566185896349347noreply@blogger.com
