Bioindicators are organisms or species that are sensitive to changes in the environment, making them useful for monitoring and assessing the health of ecosystems. They can provide early warning signs of environmental degradation or pollution, helping to identify and address issues before they become more severe. Bioindicators are valuable tools for environmental management and conservation efforts.

What are ten advantages of crocodiles?

They fulfill the niche of top predator, maintaining balance in the ecosystem. Their eggs/hatchlings provide food sources for other predators. Some scientists have used crocodiles as bioindicators - that is, they are animals which can tell us about the health and stability of the habitat it lives in.
