A COMPLETE CURRICULUM MODULE
Battling Extinction utilizes dynamic storytelling to outline a wide range of human and environmental impacts that are leading to potential animal extinction. Each story depicts the specific causes of extinction and the potential effects on the environment if the trend is not reversed.
