@KarmynNowak @franklinlorax I also have some cactus plants!

[Karmyn Nowak @KarmynNowak]

These are my cactuses! Cactuses need to live in soil with a PH of 5.5-6.5! Since cactuses like to live in dryer conditions I only have to water them a little bit once a month! #Apesland @franklinlorax

@NatalieS721 @franklinlorax We also make sure our plants have the right soil!

[Natalie Santiago @NatalieS721]

Plants need a lot of care! They also need to be taken care of with the right type of soil. By measuring the ideal PH level for soil can be a great way to keep your plants healthy and alive like this one here! #apesland @franklinlorax #apesland

[Ella Mahnke @loraxella]

Plants need materials such as fertilizer and organic matter in order to survive. The amount of sunlight and water a plant needs is all based on the plant itself. Doing research is a good way to keep your plants alive! @franklinlorax #apesland

@RiyaPtll @franklinlorax I think more people should go vegetarian!

[Riya Patel @RiyaPtll]

Meat is one of the largest contributors of greenhouse gasses. If humans were to go vegetarians we would have a much more beautiful earth! #apespop @franklinlorax

@NatalieS721 @franklinlorax I also carpool a lot!

[Natalie Santiago @NatalieS721]

I carpool with my bestie to get to all of our favorite places! Doing this decreases toxic fuels in our atmosphere, while also reducing our ecological footprint! #apespop @franklinlorax

[Ella Mahnke @loraxella]

By using a reusable water bottle, I am able to cut down on my ecological footprint. Everyone should use a reusable water bottle to prevent their ecological footprint from becoming higher! @franklinlorax #apespop

@elyse_APES @franklinlorax i also have a dog who is a k selected species!

[Elyse Johnson @elyse_APES]

This is my dog Auggie! Dogs are great examples of K-strategists which means that they value quality over quantity. K-strategists often produce fewer offspring but value protecting and caring for them greatly, this keeps their population low. #apeseco @franklinlorax

@NatalieS721 @franklinlorax it is very cold in wisconsin right now

[Natalie Santiago @NatalieS721]

We live in WISCONSIN! Wisconsin is known to be a temperate seasonal forest biome, meaning that we have each of the 4 seasons. Right now we are in the cold winter season! In our biome, we also have a variety of tree species like this one here ;) #apeseco @franklinlorax

[Ella Mahnke @loraxella]

This is cooper. He is a k-selected species because he had a high level of care from his mother as a puppy and he would only have a few offspring. @franklinlorax #apesecology

@Savannahbehling @ali_laaibah_ @franklinlorax I always make sure to use a reusable water bottle!

[Savannah @Savannahbehling]

The water bottle could end up in the Great pacific garbage patch if not recycled. It could end up as a micro plastic and could contaminate the fish we catch and eat. Make sure to recycle the plastic water bottles you use! #apeswater @franklinlorax

[Ella Mahnke @loraxella]

@ali_laaibah_ @franklinlorax This is really smart!

[laaibah @ali_laaibah_]

When it rains water goes down the sewer drain. It flows into the Oak Creek Water Treatment Facility to filtrate our water for our daily use! @franklinlorax #apeswater

[Ella Mahnke @loraxella]

I use a reusable water bottle every day instead of a plastic water bottle. The plastic water bottle can end up in water and they do are not biodegradable. It can end up in the pacific garbage patch and cause even more pollution that is not needed. #apeswater @franklinlorax
