The sounds produced by 83 species are available for the listener. Sounds are also described in the text section for the hearing impaired. Descriptions and photographs of Illinois woodland habitats are included. A description of biodiversity, what it is and why it is important is available as are resources and references and a section on scientific names. The CD-ROM is searchable.
Help is available on each screen.
One copy of this CD-ROM will be distributed free of charge in late March 2000 to all Illinois schools which contain any of grades five through nine.
