Animal Habitats and Adaptations

The video tutorial explores the concept of animal habitats, using trilobites as a starting point. It explains what a habitat is and provides examples of different animals and their respective habitats, such as wolves in forests and polar bears in the Arctic. The video encourages students to match animals with their habitats on a worksheet and concludes with a discussion on trilobite habitats, prompting further investigation into how a trilobite fossil ended up in Iowa.
