Description:
An interactive game, this web site allows visitors to restore a tallgrass or shortgrass prairie by selecting the appropriate grasses, forbs, birds, mammals, herps, and insects. The selections are discussed explaining why the choice is beneficial or not along with links to read more and an opportunity to select again. The results of the "correct" selections are viewed via animation. Users can "see" their prairie being built and also discover how a prairie is rejuvenated. Although geared toward grade school learners, the site could be valuable to educators at all levels.
