Ecology - Predator vs Prey! How Prey (even plants) Defend Themselves
New on Outschool
Learn about the many ways prey defend themselves. Predators may be tough, but prey species can use some pretty interesting and weird methods to protect themselves! For those interested in biology, ecology, zoology, and nature.
Class experience
Leap into the world of ecology and learn about the way prey defend themselves! Lions, tigers, and bears may have the sharp teeth and claws that make us shout “oh my!”, but that doesn’t mean prey species just take it lying down! In this one-time class, students will learn about various methods of prey defense and also some of the world’s weirdest examples. There are many fascinating physical, chemical, and behavioral adaptations that prey species use to keep from being eaten. We’ll discuss...
I have a B.S. in Animal Science and a M.S. in Biology with a focus in Ecology. I also have experience working with exotic animals, conservation groups, and ecological research labs. Animals and nature are a main interest of mine and I also keep up with a lot of new research (published in scientific journals) within these fields for fun! I love to share the weird and interesting parts of nature with others!
Some of the topics/examples included in this class will involve poison, blood, and loss of body parts as used by certain animal species. If you are concerned about any of these, feel free to message me for more information.
I will be compiling multiple examples from various reputable websites, documentaries, books, and journals, along with my own knowledge from working in this field. Specifically, the citations for articles from scientific journals discussing newer, specific research will be posted in the Outschool classroom after class.
