This website is part of National Geographic's Xpeditions Hall, and offers videos, links to related sites, and other interactive features to help students understand the importance of environment as it relates to organisms and where they choose to live. This activity uses the dinosaur Tyrannosaurus rex as an example and prompts students to find out what kind of environment would best suit this creature's needs.
