A species can have a big impact on a biome, and vis versa. How this could be is by a species entering a biome whome is completely transformed from that biome. For instance, if a fox were to a forest biome, then the rabbit population would decrease because the fox will eat them all. When the foxes eat them all, their reproduction will increase as a result. Since the rabbits population decrease, other populations which depend on the rabbit will decrease as well. Rabbits eat many vegetations, so with their decreas, plants will flourish. A biome could affect a speicies because the species would have to learn to adapt to the environment. For instance, if the fox isn't use to cold weather and the forest is cold, then over time, the fox may gain thicker fur to protect itself. These are just a few examples of how they affect one another.
