Chapter 9
Land Use In and Around the Basin

Hello!

My name is Percy, and I am a Common Raccoon (Procyon lotor)!

Raccoons can easily unlock doors.Did you know that the record life span for a raccoon in captivity is 21 years? Learn more about raccoons by rolling your mouse over my picture to the left!

And welcome to the ninth chapter of Lessons on the Lake, Land Use in and around the Basin. We'll learn about land use by making maps, and put on our own trial as we consider how to best use the land upon which we live.

Are you ready? All right! Let's get started!
