Examples of Habitat in a Sentence

1. Richard Fuller:

   For instance, Germany has protected areas for over 98 percent of the migratory species that pass its borders, but fewer than 13 percent of its species are adequately protected across their global range, it won’t matter what we do in Australia or in Europe if these birds are losing their habitat somewhere else – they will still perish.

2. Noah Rose:

   Even if you got rid of the human-biting mosquitoes in one place, there's a huge diversity of mosquitoes in a habitat. They're really good at solving problems and surviving in different habitats.

3. Janine Blaeloch:

   Private ownership is always going to lead to maximum exploitation of resources for profit, if you value preservation of functioning ecosystems and wildlife habitat, only public land will provide that in any significant way.

4. Martin Qvarnström:

   Although Silesaurus appears to have ingested numerous individuals of Triamyxa coprolithica, the beetle was likely too small to have been the only targeted prey, instead, Triamyxa likely shared its habitat with larger beetles, which are represented by disarticulated remains in the coprolites, and other prey, which never ended up in the coprolites in a recognizable shape. So it seems likely that Silesaurus was omnivorous, and that a part of its diet was comprised of insects.

5. Zygmunt Bauman:

   All (totalitarian) versions of society-as-garden define the parts of the social habitat as human weeds. Like all weeds, they must be segregated, contained, prevented from spreading, removed and kept outside the society boundaries; if all these means prove insufficient, they must be killed.
