Lesson Idea | Caution! Wildlife Crossing

Caution! Wildlife Crossing is a hands-on biodiversity activity for ages 6+ where students take on the role of conservationists and engineers to design a safe crossing such as a bridge or tunnel for animals. By using creativity and problem-solving skills, learners explore how wildlife crossings support animal survival, prevent isolation, and maintain biodiversity. This 20+ minute design challenge encourages iteration and innovation while teaching the importance of protecting animals from human-made barriers.
