Biocaching!

There's a new fun activity for kids of all ages (differential assignments for different ages). I call it Biocaching. You get a set of coordinates and you have to find the animal. For example there's an animal on the Biome4Kids Island with coordinates 233.5, 99.5, 30.2. Once you find that animal (pictured below) you would list either a) the name, or b) the name and basic classification, or c) the name and complete classification or d) all of the above plus the scientific name (if you can figure it out).



So the answer to this one would be:

a) Frog

b) Frog, amphibian

c) Frog: Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Chordata, Subphylum Vertebrata, Class Amphibia

d) All of the above plus the scientific name and I'm not sure what kind of frog this is. Good luck with this one (some of the others are much easier)
