Wildscreen ARK (previously ARKive)
Wildscreen ARK (ARKive) Darwin Collection
ARKive worked with the world's best filmmakers, photographers, conservationists and scientists to create a multimedia guide to the world's endangered species. The educational resources produced by ARKive help students to understand concepts of evolution and biodiversity and contain rich images of a wide variety of species. Produced by ARKive, these materials use Darwin and the voyage of the Beagle as a context to explore a number of topics around adaptation, variation, natural selection and evolution. The activities are designed to be used as a set or individually, alongside your existing resources. The resources look at:
- Darwin's finches
- Sharks and rays
- Animal classification
- Darwin and natural selection
- Evolution
- Peppered moths
Please note that the ARKive.org website is no longer available. However, in March 2024, to continue the legacy of ARKive, Wildscreen launched Wildscreen ARK, an online nature education hub for young people, built to inspire curiosity about the natural world and empower them to protect it. The education resources are now being updated to reference the new website.

Darwin and Natural Selection *suitable for home teaching*
In this activity from ARKive, students look for similarities between the basic body plans of different vertebrates as evidence of evolutionary change. This customisable presentation builds the scientific explanation of natural selection by illustrating four key observations:
- All organisms produce more...
Evolution - 'Descent with Modification' *suitable for home teaching*
In this activity from ARKive students look for similarities between the basic body plan of different vertebrates as evidence of evolutionary change.

Evolution - Peppered Moth
In this activity from ARKive students observe images and video material (with web access) of pale and dark forms of peppered moth. The activity uses the relative number of pale and dark forms in different environments as a model for evolution.
