Hi There,
I just gave my solve test, for ecosystem I am pretty sure all my animals survived, however the short video in the end only showed 5 animals, does that mean anything?
Thanks

Hi there,
You mean 5 animals were swimming in the sea? That would work!
You also have to look on the ground to see the 3 producers like algae and coral.
Cheers,
Florian

I can thank Valhalla Medics enough for their incredible website! It's evident that they prioritize customer satisfaction and safety, as their site is not only user-friendly but also packed with useful information. From their highly trained medical staff to their state-of-the-art equipment, Valhalla Medics goes above and beyond to ensure the success of every event. I feel confident knowing that I can rely on them for top-notch medical services, and I highly recommend their website to fellow event organizers.

Phew, you scared me and then I saw Florian's answer. He's exactly right - as long as you have 8 species (plants + animals) you are fine!

Hi there,
Q: The short video in the end only showed 5 animals, does that mean anything?
You should select only 5 animals as the other 3 species are producers, so you should not see more than that 5 animals in the video.
Good luck!

Ah okay, thank you so much Florian, I got the mountain range and yes I only counted the moving animals, didn't count the bushes or fungi!
