This video follows scientists working in Gorongosa National Park as they try to determine the genes responsible for tusk development in elephants.

This film explores the evolutionary connection between an infectious disease, malaria, and a genetic condition, sickle cell disease.

This video follows an international team of researchers as they collect data to map migratory bird populations in the US and Mexico.

In this activity, students use an interactive tool to simulate how scientists collected and used sample data to estimate elephant population sizes.

This Click & Learn shows that keystone species exist across a variety of ecosystems and can exert their influence in different ways.

This video presents an intriguing phenomenon: two patients who carry the same genetic variation, which is known to cause sickle cell disease, have very different outcomes.

This interactive module introduces the anatomy of the immune system and walks through the timeline of a typical immune response.

This film explores how life recovered after an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs and how those events shaped the diversity of plants and mammals on Earth today.

This video case study explores whether fungicides play a role in the decline of bee populations.

This film explores the species-area relationship, a general ecological rule that describes how the number of species in a habitat changes with area, and shows how it has been applied to the conservation of protected areas.

This interactive module allows students and educators to build models that explain how the Earth system works. The Click & Learn can be used to show how Earth is affected by human activities and natural phenomena.

This interactive module allows students to examine fossils of early humans and compare them to modern primates.
