Third grade students have been studying predator and prey animals as part of their ecosystems unit. Today, they had the opportunity to examine various skulls, including those of a ram, deer, coyote, river otter, fox, cat, and alligator, and discuss whether each animal was a predator or prey. The students enjoyed comparing the differences between herbivore and carnivore teeth. Additionally, they were excited to explore a glowing, 3D-printed T-rex skull. All skulls were generously donated to Mrs. McMahon by a licensed taxidermist.
