Discussion

There are different "diet types" in all species of living things. The above story tells of several animal "diet types". Human beings are omnivorous, meaning they eat meat and plants. Some people choose to eat only vegetables. They are called vegetarians. Are you an omnivore or a vegetarian? What would you like to eat on a pizza?

Other Activities

1. In groups, create a pizza pie that each of the seven "diet types" of animals would enjoy eating based on the descriptions given in the story.
2. Pick one animal and write a poem describing the food it eats, where it might find it, how it might catch it, and how it might feel after eating it.
