Bewildering Biofacts: Snakeskin

Bewildering Biofacts: Some may find the word “biofact” bewildering, but the Museum promises clarity, enlightenment and fun that’ll inspire curiosity! Visitors will explore biological artifacts such as bones, fur, eggs, and shells; learn what they reveal about area wildlife; and create biofact replicas to take home.

On January 20 we’ll explore Snakeskin. Finding a snake’s skin is clear evidence that a snake has been nearby and, as snakes grow, they shed their skin in one piece. Study snakeskin under a microscope, learn about local snakes, and make snake ID guides for home use.
