Science in the Library ~ Wild Dogs

I have been, or can be if you click on a link and make a purchase, compensated via a cash payment, gift, or something else of value for writing this post. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

The second session of the Science in the Library program this January was about wild dogs.
 
They talked about size differences between different wild dogs (coyotes, wolves, etc.)  As the previous session was on bears, they talked about how a dog’s paw print is different from a bear’ print.

They talked about how a dogs skull looks compared to a bear’s or a cat’s.

Can you guess which drawing is a cat skull and which is a dog skull? Hint ~ look at the nose!

Then they finished up by making their own dog model with ‘moving’ limbs and tail.
