Campers learn about the role of conflict in endangering species


Animal Crackers Risk is a version of risk in which animals die on territories that endure conflict. (The winner gets to eat the carcass.). If conflict continues in the territory the animals are endangered and may not come back. If conflict occurs again in that territory the animals are extirpated there.  When this happens to a continental region extinction happens. The goal is to control an area through power or alliances to protect the animals.  When peace reigns on a continent one (or the alliance) can manage the wildlife and harvest (eat) the proliferating animal crackers.
