Owl Pellets and the Cycling of Energy through Ecosystems
The owl pellet dissection is an engaging lesson where students will be looking closely at regurgitated pellets and discovering energy transfer through the owl and their prey. Students will be creating models of food chains and food webs while understanding how energy transfer works in ecosystems. Students will also be studying the digestive system of the owl and the skeletal system of the animals found in their pellets.
