Learning about animals? Here are some good sites to try.
BioKIDS: This site focuses on Michigan animals, but has many common North American creatures. You can browse species profiles for many different vertebrates and invertebrates.
ARKive: Wow! You can find photos, videos, and information at this site. Animals from all over the world are included.
FCPS Organism Menu: Here you can find information about many plants and animals of the northeastern United States. I like the way that this site includes details about how the plants and animals of an area are related.
All About Birds: From Cornell University, this site includes lots of details about birds. Be sure to visit the bird cams in spring!
