In this environmental science fair project, students will learn some of the ways in which the population growth of animals is modeled, and then use the logistic model to determine how a population grows when it starts far below, at, or far above the maximum carrying capacity. The Science Buddies project ideas are set up consistently beginning with an abstract, objective, and introduction, followed by a section on terms, concepts, and questions, bibliography, list of materials and equipment, experimental procedure, suggestions on how to vary the experiment, plus a focus on the sort of careers this experiment might relate to.
