When we were working towards the Green Flag for Biodiversity we learned what would happen if snow leopards became extinct. What would happen if the snow leopard was removed from a food chain. The results would be devastating for an ecosystem. You can read about that HERE
Happily this next video (from Sustainable Human) is a good news story. In 1995, fourteen wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park in the USA. The wolves had been extinct there since 1926. Watch what happened next. We think it’s amazing!
There are some great games online.
This one teaches about Food Chains.
Sheppard Software Food Chain Game
We also learned about herbivores, omnivores and carnivores
There are even more educational and interesting games here:
Sheppard Software Games for Kids
We like working up the levels on this one:
Build a Food Chain from Cserc.org
As usual BBC Bitesize has an excellent activity
to help us understand food chains.
Just remember that the video at the end
is only available in the UK.
Also from the BBC is this one:
BBC Science Clips on Interdependence Game
This one is much more challenging (for Senior Classes really)
but it shows you how complicated a food chain is.
