Creature Report

There are so many animals and plants out there it’s hard to know everything about them all! Researchers spend a lot of time trying to understand every aspect of a creature so they know them inside and out. Once that work is done scientists make posters to tell other people about what they have discovered!

In this activity make a poster about your favourite animal and its adaptations (we have included a list of ours if you are stuck picking one!). Try thinking about how DNA sequencing technology is unlocking more of the natural world and how we can use all this knowledge to help conservation efforts.
