January 20, 2011

Don't miss the special exhibit "Animal Secrets", open from January 22 to May 7, 2011 at the Virginia Museum of Natural History in Martinsville. This exhibit is completely bilingual, with both English and Spanish signage and guides. Where does a chipmunk sleep? What does an eagle feed its young? How do mother bats find their babies in a cave? In Animal Secrets, families will learn the answers to these questions and more as they explore the hidden habitats and secret lives of forest animals. "Animal Secrets" is presented by the Virginia Lottery's Super Teacher program, and Dex.
