Event Description
Fish do it, frogs do it, pythons, eagles and elephants do it, yet poop is one of those subjects people find difficult to talk about with a straight face. In this exhibit visitors can listen in on a bear's digestive system, learn the language of poop in countries around the world, examine fecal samples in a veterinarian's lab, compete in dung beetle races, track wild animals by clues left in scat, see how long it takes an elephant to poop its body weight, and meet a dinosaur dung detective. This fascinating exhibition reveals what people can learn about animals by examining what they leave behind.
