Ecosystem explorers

Ecosystem Explorers is a biodiversity and adaptation study focusing on the box gum grassy woodland ecosystem and the secret life of squirrel gliders.

This program explores some of the following 'Big Ideas':

• A diverse range of living things have evolved on earth over hundreds of millions of years; this process is ongoing.
• Biological systems are interdependent and interact with each other and their environment.
• Consumers, producers and decomposers interact within a habitat and food chains represent feeding relationships.
• The form and features of living things are related to the functions that their body systems perform.
• Particular structural features and behaviours of living things enable their survival in specific habitats.
