“Science is a special methodof finding things out.” Richard Feynman (physics guy and Nobel Prize winner)
Travis likes to observe vultures. Vultures like to eat dead stuff. Travis likes dead stuff?
So… as Travis studied and recorded observations in his notebook, he began to WONDER…??? “Do other animals like to eat dead stuff?”
Travis formed his hypothesis • “I think that ifI put out dead rats as bait, thenI will find that several species that we don’t know are ‘scavengers’ will feed on the bait.”
Science is a process……a “special method”… …and by using that method one ? leads to the next ?
