What should I include when talking about environment and habitat?

I am researching an extinct animal for my geology class and my role is to talk about the animals habitat and environment. Of course I would include where the animal lived, what the conditions were like etc. But I don't know what else to talk about. Should I include their adaptations, they way they behaved towards each other? Advice is much appreciated!

Thank you.

    Habitat can be described by the plant species that were found. Don't know how long ago your extinct animal lived, so it is not certain what types of plants, if any, were found. You can describe the habitat as grassland, desert, forests, open woodland, shoreline, lake or ocean, for example. The environment will include climate, the habitat, and the kind of animals and plants that may be living there at around the same time. You can try to figure out whether the extinct animal you describe was a prey species, a predator, or both a prey and a predator. What kind of food it may have eaten, and so on.
