The Wild Robot Protects surrounds Roz's island with a poison tide that drives animals inland, shrinks resources, and sends her across the ocean toward frigid northern water. Geological formations, marine creatures, spreading toxicity, and ecosystem damage become the obstacles she must interpret before she can protect home.

The science inside

  • Oceans & Marine Life
  • Ecosystems
  • Conservation

Your child will meet:

  • Waterborne pollution can move beyond its source and affect connected habitats.
  • When usable habitat and food shrink, organisms may crowd into new areas and compete more intensely.
  • Marine organisms have different tolerances and adaptations for water temperature, depth, and chemistry.
  • A cleanup or rescue response must consider the source, pathway, affected organisms, and unintended consequences.

Use it this way

Draw the poison tide as a source, pathway, exposure, effect, and response chain using one island scene and one ocean scene. Mark which parts are supported environmental mechanisms and which are fictional plot inventions, and never enter polluted water or attempt to collect or clean an unknown substance.
