The hypothesis is that squirrels are able to jump a distance of at least 1 meter.

You will arrange two tables 300mm apart, place a PVC pipe between them, and fill a plate with sunflower seeds. You will then release the squirrels one at a time into the pipe and measure how far they can jump.

You will need two tables, five squirrels, a PVC pipe, a thin soft mattress or a large pillow, a bag of sunflower seeds, a plate, and a measuring tape.

The results showed that the squirrels were able to jump an average distance of between 1 meter and 1.5 meters. The furthest jump was 1.5 meters, achieved by two of the squirrels.

This science project is interesting because it shows how far a squirrel can jump, which is much farther than you might expect!

To vary the experiment, you could compare male and female squirrels, or increase the height of the PVC pipe and reduce the height of the second table.

Hey there! Here are some awesome videos about this science project that we think you'll really like. They're not only super fun, but they'll also help you learn more about the science behind the project. So sit back, relax, and get ready to have some fun!!
