If you would rather skip the video, do another short report like the last (see Thursday's blog)

Biodiversity, Current Events, and (ouch!) Natural Selection
Biodiversity Research Project - from last week - If you didn't do this yet, compete it now, and be ready to share on Thursday. (for instructions, look at last blog)
Other than that, here is a 10 minute video you might find fascinating; it is about wooly mammoths, and the possibility of un-extincting them by reconstructing their DNA. How cool would that be! (?)
For an explanation of Natural Selection, an 8-minute video by Stated Clearly. I appreciate that the narrator makes a distinction between "descent with modification" and "common descent"--something I will go over next class--and the difference between facts and conclusions. If you or your parents are concerned about this topic, I understand people have strong feelings about this, and I respect that. This subject requires much thought and discernment.
