Hello ASTC colleagues,

We're in the process of brainstorming ideas for a traveling exhibit, and are hoping to include a game that focuses on the message that an ecosystem with a greater diversity of species is often more resilient.

It seems to me that there might already be examples of games and activities out there that fit this theme. Is anyone in the informal education world using games to talk about the importance of species diversity of ecosystems? (It seems like something that would be a great subject for playful interaction, but I can't think of any actual games I've come across that address this topic specifically.)

Thanks for your ideas!
