Rhinozilla is Mia's bearded dragon and the focus of this lesson on energy flow in an ecosystem. She uses him to explain the energy pyramid, from producers through third level consumers, and she likens the food chain to a video game. Mia also classifies organisms as herbivore, carnivore, or decomposer. This lesson is appropriate for upper-elementary ecologists and would make a high-interest resource.
