Regurgitated owl pellets contain the indigestible parts of their prey. By dissecting an owl pellet, students can identify the small animals that are prey for the owls. The pellets are heat treated, not fumigated, and individually wrapped.
The kit comes with materials for 10 setups, a dichotomous key, teacher's guide, and student copymaster.
The kit is also available for purchase with a link to a NewPath digital lesson, which includes a variety of resources on the topic, including background information, illustrations and self-assessments.
