Habitat Journey explores regional habitats from ocean to coast, mountains, and desert. Walk-through dioramas make you feel like you are there! Specimens, models, live plants and animals, things to touch and do help you discover what is special about our region and why local habitats are disappearing.
- Listen to the sounds of different birds and
learn to identify them by their song. Look for animal tracks, homes, and other signs
of life in habitats found nearby. Make tectonic plates move and collide to produce
earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountains. Explore a cave sparkling with gems and minerals
from the region. Feel, hear, and see the desert go from day
to night.
- "See" warm-blooded animals in complete darkness; hunt for kangaroo rats as rattlesnakes do with infrared vision.
