ODS Curriculum - Short Stations - Scavengers page finished. Information on skulls, arthropods, opossums, and live millipedes included.
Animals that feed on dead and decaying matter. These animals may be carnivores, herbivores, or omnivores, and may engage in scavenging in addition to other eating habits. Scavengers can be mammals, birds, reptiles, arthropods, and more.
This station contains live specimens. Please be careful when handling the live specimens. The Giant Northwest Millipedes in this station like to hide in the soil. As a group, gently sift through the soil until you find a few. There may even be enough of them for every member of your group to hold one. Hold the millipedes over the tub so they don't fall very far if they are accidentally dropped.
