Introduction

You have just discovered a new creature as you were playing in your 
backyard!  A preliminary investigation has shown you that it is an animal 
and that it DOES have a backbone.  Now you need to decide whether it is a 
mammal, reptile, amphibian, bird or fish.  You are leaning towards it being 
an amphibian, but you are not 100% sure.  You need to learn a little more 
about amphibians before you can make that decision.  Once you explore and 
complete the first activities, your animal's name will be revealed to you, 
and you will be able to explore it indepth and share that information with 
the other scientists in the room.
