Summary

What if a capybara and a kangaroo rat switched homes? Would their adaptations be helpful at all?

  1. First, students research how one animal is adapted to its environment.
  2. Then, they pick a related animal from a totally different biome and research its adaptations.
  3. Imagine that the two animals switch locations. Which adaptations will now be an advantage, neutral, or a disadvantage?
  4. Finally they write the story of the two animals switching places.
