Dinosaur Matching

Within the Digging Up the Past adventure for the Wolf rank, requirement 1 mentions to play a game that tests your knowledge of dinosaurs through a matching game.  So naturally being curious of how many known types of dinosaurs have been discovered, I asked Google. To my surprise there has been approximately 300 species that have been placed within genera! That's one serious game of matching!

While searching the web for a dinosaur matching game, I came across a website that has just that. https://matchthememory.com/dinosaurs MatchTheMemory allows you to select how many different cards you would like, ranging from 2-9 so you can customize it for the scout.  What's also awesome about this matching game is that when you do get a match, a little info bubble pops up giving you information about the dinosaur.  This game could be used during your opening gathering activity to maximize the time you have for den meetings.
