  1. Discuss the difference between wild and domesticated animals. Ask Cub Scouts and adult partners what they think makes an animal wild and to give examples of wild animals.
  2. Ask Cub Scouts and adult partners what they think makes an animal domesticated and to give examples of domesticated animals.
  3. Wild animals are animals that live outdoors and do not rely on humans and are considered wild animals. Most wild animals avoid humans, so you may not see them. Wild animals usually have better sight, hearing, and smell than humans, which helps them stay out of our sight. You should observe wild animals but never approach them.
  4. Domesticated animals are animals that live with humans and rely on us for things like food and shelter are called domesticated. Some animals have become domesticated as a source of food or to help humans with work, and others have become pets. Just because an animal is domesticated does not mean the animal is safe.
  5. Never approach an animal that you do not know. You cannot tell whether an animal is domesticated or wild just by looking at it. For example, most dogs you may see are domesticated, but some dogs are wild and do not rely on humans. Wild dogs should not be approached.
  6. Have Cub Scouts draw their favorite wild animal on one sheet of paper and their favorite domesticated animal on another sheet of paper.
