Meet our What a Peculiar Animal! contest champions: Karin MacPherson’s class from Morrisburg, ON; Laura Stefan’s class from Cochrane, AB; and Autumn Taha’s class from Edmonton, AB!
These students put their creativity and their knowledge of animal adaptations to the test by designing an incredible Peculiar Animal Ambassador. They thought carefully about how their animal would survive in its habitat, giving it unique adaptations to find food, stay safe from predators, and thrive in its environment.
