The ecological niche of an organism depends not only on where
it lives but also on what it does. By analogy, it may be said
that the habitat is the organism's "address", and
the niche is its "profession", biologically speaking.
SO an animals ecological niche, I think it means to be its
profession, to what the animal does. Want examples go here.

I think that it is an animal's natural habitat as it was
meant to be before
humans started destroying them.
