Owl Pellet Dissections

Join us for the Owl Pellet Dissection event, running from 2 PM to 3 PM, suitable for all ages! Did you know that owls swallow their food whole and later regurgitate pellets containing fur and bones? This hands-on activity allows participants to dissect their own owl pellet, study the bones inside, and learn about the diet of these fascinating birds. Each student will receive a dissection kit, a worksheet, and guided instructions, along with a small bag to take home their findings. All children must be accompanied by an adult chaperone, who will also need a ticket. Tickets include all-day museum admission and access to scavenger hunts. Please note that while the owl pellets are dried and sterilized, gloves will be provided for those who wish to use them. Children under three do not require a ticket.
