Hi there! I'm Liz Johnson. I work for the Museum, exploring biodiversity in New York City's Central Park. Thousands of species live here! Can you believe it? From tiny mites to mighty trees, I learn about them all. Then I work with other groups to protect the Park's habitat.

To explore the Park yourself, look for the answers to the questions below. Get clues by clicking on the circles.

 

 

1. Which invertebrates (animals without a backbone) are feeding off a vertebrate (animal with a backbone)?


2. Which animal lives inside another one?


3. Where does that soda can really belong?


4. Which insect is laying its eggs on another insect? (When the eggs hatch, can you guess what the larvae's first meal will be?)


5. Which predator spends most of its time weaving and waiting?


6. Can you find a tiny animal eating a worm?


EXTRA: Can you find the American Museum of Natural History?
