In the continued effort to create innovative and stimulating STEM curriculum, Bone Clones has collaborated with KIMSeattle (Kids In Medicine & Science) to create this Career-connected Classroom™ Wildlife Skull Identification Set—a real-world wildlife forensics lab of mammals and birds.nWildlife Forensics is a rapidly expanding field of science. It combines a simple appreciation of the natural world with the protection of all living things from smuggling, poaching, environmental pollution, climate change, and other losses of biodiversity caused by irresponsible activities of our own species.nSimilar to solving a “human” forensic case, a wildlife case requires an interdisciplinary approach of specialists who collaborate with one another and employ similar investigative methods. Input is provided by specialists in ecology, veterinary medicine, zoology, osteology, toxicology, pathology, genetics, radiology, conservationists, law enforcement, the wildlife forensic investigators themselves, and others. The basis of all forensic work is careful examination and documentation of evidence so it can be reliably communicated to a court of law. This lab will guide students through this process.nSpecifications:nnScenario-based learning (SBL) to captivate, motivate and accelerate real-world skills and experience “Open-and-Go”: minimal lab prep, Slide deck (29 slides) with detailed notes, robust (27-page) Teacher’s Guide, laminated student protocols & dichotomous keys, and datasheets for each labnEstimated class time: Two 45 min. class periods or One 1 ½ hour class periodnAccommodates up to 27 students (2-3 students/lab group)nTeacher’s Guide provides guidelines for laboratory set up and workflownnIncluded in this Set:nCareer-connected Classroom™nnTeacher’s Guide (Printed, Color, 27 Pages)nSlide Deck & Lecture Notes (29-slide Download)nStudent Protocols (Printed, Laminated, Color)nStudent Data Sheets (Download)nDichotomous Key (Printed, Laminated, Color)nnLaboratorynn6 Plastic Vernier Calipersn9 Outside Calipers (12″ spread)nBC-100E Replica White-tailed Doe Deer SkullnnBC-143E Replica Coyote SkullnnBC-147E Replica Red Wolf SkullnnBC-099E Replica Black Bear SkullnnBC-146E Replica Bobcat SkullnnBC-148E Replica Striped Skunk SkullnnBC-068 Replica Bald Eagle SkullnnBC-078 Replica Red-tailed Hawk SkullnnBC-170 Replica Blue Jay SkullnnProduct of Bone ClonesnPlease be advised that this product is made to order and will require a 2-3 week lead time.
