Answer:

wetland

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pantanal soil is mainly sandy and clayey, this factor associated with the low slope and the many rivers of this region contribute to the Pantanal flooding. That is, it is moist most of the year and is full of animals such as alligators, beavers and various types of fish. In short, a wetland is a wetland, so we can say that the Bear Creek marsh is a wetland.

The first rains fall on a porous soil and are easily absorbed, with moistening of the earth various plant species sprout and the plain becomes green. In a few days the soil can no longer absorb the water that accumulates in the lower areas. The level of rivers and lagoons increases causing floods and the Pantanal becomes a huge flood. During drought, the water is restricted to riverbeds, ponds and wetlands.
