Description
"This trilogy of short films has been crafted to engage students with memorable examples of the evolutionary process in action. Each film takes students on an adventure - to the deserts of the American Southwest, to the Antarctic, and to East Africa, where they encounter fascinating creatures and pioneering scientists who have revealed how the fittest are made. Produced by award-winning filmmakers Sarah Holt and Bill Anderson, each film illustrates the role of mutation and natural selection in adaptation" - www.hhmi.com/biointeractive
