How do you think this game symbolizes what happens in food webs and predator-prey-disease relationships?.Use the following prompts for participants to reflect on ways to be active in fall and engage others in activity to build a habit of participating in outdoor activity throughout the year. At the end of the activity (designated by the teacher) each fox pack tallies up the food items in their hoop, the pack with the most food items is the winner.Remind all participants that a tag is a touch on the back, shoulder, or arms, and not a push, punch, or grab.Remind foxes (participants) tagged by wolves/coyotes (blue pinnies) to get a blue pinnie and become a predator as well.Encourage them to evade being captured by both predators and disease by moving evasively in the playing area.Direct foxes to cache as much ‘food’ as possible, both from the caches of other foxes, and that which is in the open playing area.Ensure all participants are aware of running with their head up, and aware of their surroundings, as play will be happening in multiple directions.They must perform 10 repetitions of a pre-selected activity such as one from Ophea’s 50 Fitness Activities before returning to the game. If a fox or wolf/ coyote is tagged by disease, they must drop any food they have (foxes) and go directly to the hoop in the middle. If they do, they must don a blue pinnie and become a ‘predator’.
