The Biosphere Institute’s Bear, Bison, Cougar, Elk and Wolf EduKits increase the ecological literacy of students and citizens in the Bow Valley.

These travelling trunks contain pelts, fur swatches, skulls, scat replicas, and books relevant to animals and their place in the ecosystem and Indigenous and settler cultures. They also include digital media and a PowerPoint presentation that can be used in classroom delivery. The education content can be tailored to the grade and learning outcomes of your class, please let us know what curriculum connections you’re looking to make.

EduKits provide updates on conservation initiatives for focal species, and build students’ awareness of the needs of wildlife and how humans can help ensure wildlife are able to meet those needs. EduKits also foster an understanding of the spiritual and cultural significance of Bow Valley wildlife species to local First Nations cultures.
