Our partner Pets at Home has produced an activity pack to support the Beaver Animal Friend Activity Badge.

  1. Learn how to care for an animal
  2. Help to take care of that animal for six weeks.
  3. Tell others in your Colony or Lodge about the animal
  4. Find out what the animal needs. Learn about its food, habitat, space, exercise and sleeping area.
  5. Keep a note of how you have looked after the animal for two weeks. You can draw, take photographs or write short sentences

Top tips

The animal you care for could be a dog, cat, gerbil, guinea pig, fish, bird, rabbit, lamb or even a stick insect! Maybe you could help look after a family member's pet.

Even though there are lots of computer games and things that show you what it's like to care for an animal, these won't count for this badge. You will need to learn to take care of a real, live animal.
