 The Food Chain Game
 
When we look at all the various forms of life on Earth we find that everything is connected. One creature might eat smaller creatures, but in turn it may become food for an even bigger animal.  That bigger animal then might become the meal of an even bigger animal. We call this series of eating and being eaten, the food chain.
 

Here is an example of a food chain:

            grass ---- rabbit ---- coyote ---- mountain lion

In this food chain the grass is eaten by the rabbit, the coyote feeds on the rabbit, and the mountain lion eats the coyote.

(Note: coyotes are not a regular part of a mountain lion’s diet, but they will occassionally feed on one)

 
The plants and animals below are all mixed up.
Line them up in the correct order to form a food chain.
 

1. bumblebee ---- crow ---- dandelion

2. coyote ---- brook trout ---- fly ---- otter

3. weasel ---- grass ---- redtail hawk ---- pika

4. fly ---bear ---- frog ---- bull trout

5. squirrel ---- acorn ---- hawk

6. black-footed ferret -- grass --- great horned owl -- prairie dog

7. cutthroat trout ---- salmon fly ---- osprey

8. red squirrel ---- whitebark pine nuts ---- grizzly bear

9. bull snake ----sunflower seeds ---- golden eagle----mouse

10. bat ---- human ----mosquito ---- raccoon

11. skunk ---- berries ---- great horned owl---- woodrat

12. seal ---- krill ---- polar bear----fish
