Meet the people who care for "living collections" at the NC Museum of Natural Science.
At the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences there are year-round collections of living things...20-year old snakes, 12-year old salamanders, rare turtles, seldom-seen fish, native moths, and giant grasshoppers. This collection is often the first contact with living, native animals for visiting school children. Each has to be cared for & feed just the right foods within the right conditions.
