This open educational resource is a fun and engaging high school-level lecture including lecture notes on animal parental care highlighting reptile behaviors. We use survivorship curves to frame the lesson, having the class brainstorm on what animals fit in each survivorship curve, along with different species of reptiles that exhibit interesting parenting behaviors. At the end of the lecture, we highlight diverse scientists in the field to make the lecture more inclusive and welcoming.
