 As a zoologist your task will be to work together with your partner to find out the following information about the animal you have chosen to ensure that they feel at home in their new enclosure. (habitat)
 * __ Zoologist(Vet) Role __**

· Is the animal a herbivore (plant-eater), a carnivore (meat-eater) or an omnivore (plant and meat eater)? · What kinds of things do they eat? · How many times do the animals need to be fed each day? · Does the animal only need to be fed once a week? · Does the animal eat during the day or night? · Will the Keepers need to be careful when feeding this animal? · Do the Keepers need to secure the animal away so they can put food in the enclosure?  · Where can we find the food we need for the animal? · Is there anything the animal can not eat? · How would the animal hunt for food in the wild?
 * __Task One- "__The Animals Diet"**

 * __Task Two- "__The Animals Behaviour"**

As an environmentalist you task will be to work together with your partner to find out the following information about the animal you have chosen to ensure that they feel at home in their new enclosure. (habitat) <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">· What type of shelter does the animal need/live in?

 * __Task Two-__ "Environment"**

Now that you have researched your two animals in pairs, it is time to gather and share all the information you have found out about the two animals with the other students in your group.
 * __<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Group Work Time __**

As a group you will need to write an information report for each animal that you found information about. The information report, will be used to tell the Zoo keepers about the Diets, eating needs/styles, the shelters, climate, etc about the animal. This is because all the information has been lost about feeding times, pregnancy lengths, socialising aspects of the animals and the zoo keepers would appreciate your help with this. You can base your information report around the questions in which you answered as a zoologist and and eco-warrior.
 * __Task Three__ "Writing an Information Report for each of your animals to give to the Zoo Keepers"**

As you now all know about the two different animals, you will design in your group a draft version on paper, of the enclosures (habitats) you would create for your two chosen animals. These draft versions of the animal enclosure will be given to the Chief Zoo Keeper, so he knows how to build the habitats for the animals. Your group will need to think about: <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">·H ow you will keep the animal from escaping their enclosure <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">·H ow th​ey will be fed by the Zoo Keepers <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">· ​ What type of shelter they need
 * __Task Four__ "Designing the Habitats on paper"**
 * Basically everything that you have researched will need to be thought about when designing a draft copy of the enclosures.**

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; msoansilanguage: EN-USmsobidifontfamily;"><span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">· <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now that you have drawn examples of the two animal enclosures, you are to pick __one__ animal enclosure to build a diorama for <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">·<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The diorama will be placed around the classroom so when the Chief Zoo Keeper visits us to collect our ideas and thoughts, he will be able to see what some of the enclosures will look like in 3D form. <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 10pt; msoansilanguage: EN-US; msobidifontfamily: Symbol; msofareastfontfamily: Symbol; msolist: Ignore;">·<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You will need to create the Diorama so it reflects all the information you have gathered about the animal in regards to shelter, food, climate, etc. ·<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The diorama design is what the zoo will use as a guide to building the new enclosures, so think carefully about how the habiat needs to look and what needs to be in it to enable <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">the animal to feel right at home.
 * __Task Five__ "Designing a Dioroma of an Animals Habitat"**

Your group will be asked to show your diorama to your fellow peers, teacher and the Chief Zoo Keeper. You will explain all the information you have gathered about your animals and some interesting facts you have learnt. You will explain which animal habitat you chose to design your diorama on and why your group designed it the way they did. Explaining in detail the animals diet, shelter requirements, behaviour, etc.
 * __Task Six__** **"Presentation of the Diaroma and Speech"**
