Poo Power

Today we're going to learn about something funny, but VERY im-poo-tant!

Why do you think poo is so important?

The role of poo

Poo can help plants to grow, feed animals and make soil healthy

How can poo be food for other animals?

Capybara
Capabaras eat their own poo! It helps them digest their food.

Helping plants grow

Many animals eat fruit and seeds

When they poo, they spread the seeds far away

Can you think of animals that may help spread seeds?

Biogas

Can you guess what biogas is and where it comes from?

Fun fact!

NASA has researched biogas to power space missions!

Imagine you're an inventor

Can you think of a new way to use biogas?

Maybe you could power your school

Heat a swimming pool

The Food Chain

Poo is a key part of the food chain

Smaller creatures like insects and funghi eat poo and break it down

This really helps the soil so more things can grow

What if there was no poo?!

Without poo, rainforests and ecosystems all over the planet would be disrupted

You'd have less plants and animals wouldn't have enough food

Poo is AWESOME!

You've learned all about POO!
