Who are the #DirtyDozen fuelling the plastic pollution crisis and filling the Ocean with their single-use packaging?⠀

Ever lifted up a stone and seen a tiny crab scurry away? Or dug a hole in the sand and had a sand hopper spring into your lap? All sorts of creatures and critters live in habitats on the beach. And the more we know about them, the more we can do to keep them safe.

In this rockpool ramble, you're going to explore the rockpools on the beach, see who lives there, and figure out how their homes might be affected by rubbish and pollution.

Look at the person on your left. Now at the person on your right. One of these people will try to eat you. But who? In these activities, you’re going to play the parts of different marine animals, and see who can eat their way to the top of the food chain.
