2009 marked the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin and his theories still have great relevance today. In this program, students will learn the importance of scientific theories and investigate how the theory of evolution and natural selection has shaped today’s knowledge on animal adaptation, predation, and survival. By investigating some of the incredible adaptation’s animals possess, students will learn how individual species have adapted to help them obtain food and avoid being a food source themselves. Take a journey back in time and explore some of the early evolutionary theories as you observe and interact with some of our most impressive and intimidating animals.
