This program immerses your students in the lives of animals living in the forest.
Learners will be involved in a simulation of predator-prey relationships while they play an active, outdoor food web game. After an introduction to set the parameters of the simulation, participants will assume the role of specific animals that are attempting to survive.
Follow-up discussions involve the learner in gaining an understanding of animal ecology, as well as the impact of human activities on wildlife populations.
