Natural Selection Storyline "Not Your Grandma's Armadillo"
Paleontologist Jacques is eager to find out if Ovo has a fossil record like the one on Earth. Students learn about the Law of Superposition to determine which organisms arrived on the island before or after others. Interestingly, some unidentifiable remains are found on the island. Students research two different animal species to learn about the adaptations that have allowed them to thrive on the island since arriving suddenly several decades ago, as well as what happens when an animal lacks the adaptations it needs within its habitat.
