Learn about the top and bottom predators in the ocean with these ocean animals food chain printables

Who’s ready to learn about ocean animals? These ocean animals food chain printables will help you understand more about these amazing creatures. My son is a huge ocean fan, we’ve watched numerous documentaries and Youtube videos about his favorite animal, the killer whale. We all know that the ocean food chain is not simple one so I picked out some of my son’s favorite animals to narrow things down and we went from there.

It was fun researching the animal’s diet with this exercise and my son was very enthusiastic about helping me. He also remembered a lot of information that I forgot as well.

We started with the Killer whale and looked at its diet. They eat penguins, seals and fish. However, when I went to look for images to print, there were so many and I wanted to be correct so we focused on antarctic penguins, the emperor penguins and leopard seals.

Since we were discussing the Antarctic, then we picked an Arctic predator and landed on the polar bear.

The polar bear eats seals or beluga whales and more but for the purposes of our exercise we focused on the main ones. So from the top predator we went all the way down to the base of the food chain, phyoplankton.

I created cards for each of the animals so the could be printed out with the names of if you wanted to you could print out another copy and cut out the names and match them up that way. But the ideas is to match the prey to the predator and see if you kids can create a visual representation of the ocean animals food chain.

I created cards that were 9 to a page and 4 to page and the first page includes the entire food chain that we came up with so you have the answers right there. You can go over it with your kids prior to using the cards or you can just let them at it and see if they can figure it out.

And now we have tons more fun printable kindergarten worksheets to share.
