🐾 Traits Triathlon Kickoff

Students rotate through three quick challenge stations (agility maze, scent-identification game, and problem-solving puzzle) to simulate common pet traits. After each station, they discuss how genetics might influence these abilities and which types of owners might value each trait. The class generates a shared list of lifestyle factors (apartment living, allergies, time for exercise, young children, etc.) that influence what makes a pet "ideal."
