Australian Animals and Climate Change

Some of the children attending the Science Festival earlier this month were able to role play being science reporters and researchers.

They split into four groups, each looking at the impact of climate change on one of four living creatures: 

• the red-crowned toadlet
• the white ibis
• the bramble cay melomy
• coral 

Below are the sound files that were created on the day. Many thanks to Fiona Brell of the Australian Museum who managed to run the whole activity in little more than an hour. mjp
