Class Response: Owl Pellets

Who: Me and my lab partner
What:An owl pellet lab.
When:In science class.
Why: Frankly I have no idea.
How:
1. We take the owl pellet apart.
2. We dig out the bones.
3. We try to identify what animal bones were found in the owl pellet.
4. We put the skeletons together.
5. We're done!

My opinion: I did this in third grade and it wasn't that bad then. When I did again I was grossed out. It wasn't one where its disgusting but fun. When we put the skeletons together it was downright frustrating. Which one went to which animal? Does that go in the legs or arms? Awww, darn it fell off and broke into a thousand pieces! Ugh, the rib's a goner. That was mostly what my partner and I were saying. All in all the lab was good for learning but not that fun.
