The Bugmobile

What are the differences between insects and spiders? Are tarantulas really dangerous?

In partnership with The Butterfly Pavilion and Insect Center.

Get up close and personal with insects, spiders, and other arthropods from around the world. Explore the similarities and differences of these many-legged creatures. Presentations can highlight insect cycles (metamorphosis), adaptation for survival, and the role insects play as pollinators and recyclers. Presenters are trained to cover a wide variety of topics.

Special Note: This program is very popular in the spring; we recommend reservations well in advance.
