AY Honors/Cattle Husbandry/Requirements

7. List ten endangered animals. Tell where they live and why they have become endangered.

When teaching this honor to a group, you could go to the library ahead of time and check out several books on the various endangered animals, or on endangered animals in general. You will need enough books so that each Pathfinder can have one (or they could share them in groups of two), and you need to make sure that you have information on at least ten endangered animals. You could instead bring in a set of encyclopedias. During class, pass the books around and have each Pathfinder look up the information on the animal featured in that book. It is important that the Pathfinders do this research themselves rather than having it handed to them. You can also ask that the Pathfinders search the internet for the information. Below are some well-known endangered mammals (although mammals are not the only type of endangered animals).
