Animal Embassy: Life Under the Surface

Rising Grades K-5 Animals dig into the surface of the Earth for many reasons. In nature, many of these creatures are contributing to the success of others by creating homes for them, tilling the soil, and in some cases even planting the seeds of important plants and trees. Some dig to lay their eggs, others to find or hide food, many to escape the extremes of heat and cold, while some are permanent underground residents. Students will meet a Ferret, an African Sulcata Tortoise, an Indian Sand Boa, a Soft-Shelled Turtle, an African Pygmy Hedgehog and more as we explore the subterranean realm and some of the animals that call it home.
