LIMA, OH (WLIO) - It was a lesson in the circle of life as students at Lima City Schools South Science and Technology Magnet took on role playing out in nature.

Naturalists from Johnny Appleseed Metropolitan Park District had the children take on the role of being a deer or being a resource of water, food, or shelter. When there were not enough resources to sustain the deer - the deer perished and became resources.

"If you can go to a park that's fantastic if you can't make it to one we'll bring the park to you. And that's why we're here we're trying to get the parks, we're trying to get science and people excited about that even at an early age," said Amy Banner, Naturalist at the Johnny Appleseed Metropolitan Park District.
Naturalists will be at the school through Thursday working with the students.
