Operation Koala

Background - Different forms of transport are used to move people and animals all around the world. Big cargo ships carry heavy containers, semi-trailer trucks carry loads across the land and aeroplanes transport people and cargo long distances from country to country through the air.

Task - You have to investigate and then choose the best form of transport to carry a koala from Sydney Australia to a zoo in Japan.

Find where Sydney Australia is and put your finger on that spot. Then find where the country Japan is and trace your finger from Sydney to Japan.
