  8. Station 4 Oak Gall Wasps and Oak Trees

  9. Station 4 The oak gall wasp stings the oak tree. The tree then grows a GALL which is a nest for the wasp’s babies. When the larva hatch, they eat their way out of the gall. This does not help or hurt the oak tree.

  10. Station 5 Tapeworms

  11. Station 5 Tapeworms live in the intestines of pigs, cows, and even humans. Tapeworms feed off the food that the host eats. The tapeworm has a safe, warm home and a constant food source. The tapeworm can make the host sick or even cause death.

  12. Station 6 Mites on African Hissing Cockroaches

  14. Station 7 Cleaner Fish and the Moray Eel

  15. Station 7 The cleaner fish eats parasites and food bits out of the inside of this moray eel. It gets a meal and is protected from predators by the fierce eel.

  16. Station 8 Burdocks and Deer

  17. Station 8 Burdocks are weeds found along roadsides and in empty lots and fields. The seed heads (burs) of burdocks long spines with hooked tips. The hooked tips catch onto the hair of passing vertebrates (cows, deer, dogs, humans) and the burs are carried elsewhere until they finally drop off or are pulled off by the carriers. The animals are unaffected by the burdocks.
