The Scoop on Poop
Opens May 26, 2012
Fish do it, frogs do it, pythons, eagles, and elephants do it, yet poop is one of those subjects we find difficult to talk about with a straight face. 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 their body weight, and meet a dinosaur dung detective in this fascinating exhibition that reveals what we can learn about animals by examining what they leave behind.
