What do the local biomes tell you about the climate of your area? How do the local biomes limit the kinds of living things that you may see regularly in your area? Be prepared to discuss how the biomes of local areas influence the daily life, economy, and natural diversity of local areas. Next, identify an invasive species in your biome. Define invasive species and discuss the problems associated with invasions. Using California state, find department of agriculture or fish and game department to find examples of exotic species (plant or animal) that have been introduced into your area that are having negative effects on the native plants and animals. Often these will be listed under the state fish and game department, or your state's agricultural extension service. Pick a specific invasive species that has invaded your area.
