Part 1 of the paper should include a general overiew of the animal: scientific/common name, environment/habitat, behavioral characterisitcs, endangerment status, random facts that you find interesting, etc.
Part 2 should include some kind of comparison to other vertebrates. Incorporate some aspect of the skeleton for comparison. How does FORM relate to FUNCTION? This can be related to the skull/teeth (e.g., diet), limbs (locomotion), etc. This is where the person with the skeleton will come into play for the write-up.
I’m not going to be overly critical with this project due to the circumstances of how this needs to be conducted. I realize that this is a disjointed “group” project because of the way that skeletons are distributed. Please just ensure you incorporate scholarly sources and include a reference list at the end. Try your best to collaborate as much as possible to form the write-up.
If you are using a collaborative platform (e.g., Google docs, OneDrive, etc.), you can send me the link for submission. I’m also happy to review projects in progress if you need feedback.
The entire paper should be 4-6 pages in length, double-spaced, APA, 12 point font. Due by April 30th @ 5 PM EST.
