Identifying ecosystems.

Do you have a natural ecosystem within your school grounds or nearby?

Establish the ecosystem that would have been present in your area prior to human settlement.
Go to www.dse.vic.gov.au and search the Biodiversity interactive maps.
Can you see any remnants of this ecosystem now? Determine the species indigenous to your area.

Take a look at Museum Victoria Bioinformatics at http://museumvictoria.com.au/bioinformatics
