Educational Materials for Parents & Teachers
Education is a key component of watchable wildlife. We believe that when people learn about wildlife and habitats, they enjoy being outdoors even more. Learning about wildlife behavior and the clues they leave behind, makes if easy to spot wildlife all around Flagstaff. To this end, we've provided this page full of resources to help parents and teachers focus on the wildlife in our region. These resources were produced by the Arizona Game & Fish Department's "Focus Wildlife Program" and can be viewed directly by clicking here.
Each section below includes a downloadable informational sheet.
Habitat - the place where an animal lives, grows and survives.
Observations - a fact that was collected using one of the five senses.
Amphibians - an animal that spends part of its life in water and part on land, such as a frog or salamander.
Migration - the process of animals moving from one part of the world to another.
Eagles - learn about these amazing birds including their breeding and threats to these amazing birds of prey.
Animal Signs - one of more clues that an animal leaves behind like scat (animal droppings) and tracks (footprints).
Wing Shape - although most birds can fly, their reasons for flying are often different. Wing shapes help birds with their specific needs.
