A facultative habitat, for example, is one that a species may use at one or another stage of its life cycle, or of which it takes advantage temporarily, for shelter or food. The loss of such a habitat will not result in the extinction of the species. The building that he lives in is on fire tonight. I’m home, I text. So come, of course! Come when you need to!
