Penguins must complete their life cycle in very cold temperatures. To protect their eggs from the cold, penguins use brood patches. Students will watch a penguin chick hatch from an egg and grow into an adult.
Discusses the physical characteristics, behavior, and development of sharks, and explains how these predators are threatened by overfishing, pollution, and finning.
