Science Standards: MS-LS2 (Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics); MS-LS4 (Biological Evolution: Unity and Diversity)

What are some of the common large mammals that live in the Delaware Water Gap region? Is it possible to learn more about these creatures by tracking their movements around the Blairstown Campus? How do scientists gather data about often elusive large mammals like bears, bobcats, and otters and what do they do with their findings? In this course students will track, collect, and interpret data on some of the large creatures who call the Center their home and draw conclusions about the natural habitat.
