Oregon Caves National Monument
Animal Detectives (4th grade)

Pull out the magnifying glass and prepare to follow the clues as students learn to be animal detectives. Animals leave signs all over. With the Animal Detectives program students learn to recognize different animal clues and what those clues reveal about the animal suspects. Students will also learn skills on wildlife safety, conservation, and animal classification.

Take a sneak peek at the classroom program. This is a condensed version of the PowerPoint presentation that could be presented to your class.
