Deck the Halls of Ectotherms

Tuesday, December 16 – Saturday, January 3
FREE for Members or with General Admission

The live animals at the Cook Museum of Natural Science are celebrating the holidays too! Come see the holiday décor in the Discover Exhibit and the 12 Days of Christmas Enrichment in the Wonderful World of Insects terrariums!

In addition to being festive, the décor in the tanks provides enrichment for the animals. Enrichment allows animals in captivity to experience something new and stimulating. This keeps their minds and senses active while encouraging the animals to use their natural behaviors.

You can help stuff the stocking of a Cook Museum critter! The Animal Care team has put together an Amazon Wish List of terrarium and tank enrichment items to make it simple to shop and donate.
