In what type of ecosystem can keel-billed toucan be found? how might keel-billed toucan suddenly increase? how might this affect the ecosystem? what might happen to the ecosystem if keel-billed toucan were removed?

EcosystemTropical Savanna is found between sections of tropical rain forest and deserts.  They have 2 seasons; wet (constant humidity) and dry (long periods of dry spells and drought that may cause fires).

Both savanna buffalo and forest buffalo live close to water. The buffalo are found throughout the northern and southern savanna as well as the lowland rain forest.

How might this population suddenly increase? How might this affect the ecosystem?  If there was an increase in population; grasslands during the wet season will be gone, more predators will flock for an abundance of buffalo.

What might happen to the ecosystem if this population was removed?  If you remove the buffalo from the savanna ecosystem, it can cause a ripple effect such as populations of small mammal (mouse) will double, which will attract more snakes (venomous), it can cause the flea and tick population to increase, and the increase in tick/fleas can cause the risk of transmission of flea/tick borne pathogens.

Hope this helps!
