The first part of your task is to use Switch Zoo to create a brand new animal.

1. Click here to go to the Switch Zoo Guided Tour.

2. After you finish the tour, make your own animal using Switch Zoo.
3. Give your animal a name. For example, if your animal is a combination of a cheetah and a sheep, you might name it a Sheetah or a CheeSheep. Use the names of the animals you used to make your name. Click on "Add Title" and type in the name.
   
4. Below "Add Title," click on "Add Story" and list the animals you used to make the body, legs, head, and tail of your animal. 
5. When you are done making and naming your animal, click on the purple camera to print out a picture of your creation.  

Next, you will pretend that you are an animal researcher who has discovered this new creature in the wild. It is your job to write a Field Guide about the animal, its adaptations, and its habits so you can educate the world about this amazing new species. 

To get started, click on "Field Guide" in the menu bar at the left.
