A Variety Of Organisms

 The spotted turtle is a resident of freshwater lakes and rivers. A terrarium includes this live one.


A large aquarium includes several species of freshwater fish.


Wetlands are the great filtration system of nature. Aside from the fish that live in them, many animals make a living in wetlands- birds, raccoons, snakes, and more. This display case shows some you might find in a Canadian wetland.


Back out in the ocean, jellyfish are part of the environment. An aquarium features several live jellyfish- ethereal, alien, graceful, and rather hard to photograph.
