Carolinian Canada at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair
Ontario's only marsupial a star in hit game show
November 15th, Toronto
Eager Children tackle 'Mission Im-possum-ble,
the toughest category of questions in the game show.
Are you smarter than an opossum? This is what contestants attending Biodiversity Day at the Royal Winter Fair tried to find out. CCC staff and volunteers posed as marsupials and plied the crowd with questions about nature in southern Ontario. Children and their parents enjoyed the educational and interactive game based loosely on the hit television show, “Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader”. The Ministry of Natural Resources organized Biodiversity Day to help build a broad public understanding of and a commitment to biodiversity. We are eager to tailor this game for a diversity of audiences and take this show on the road. If you are interested in finding out more, please contact Bronwen Buck, Ecosystem Recovery Network Coordinator at woodland@carolinian.org.
