Finally! An indoor animal exhibit! It a mini-aquarium! Mostly containing freshwater fish, snakes, birds (stuffed), and other animals. The live alligator and snapping turtle exhibit are interesting too. Children of all ages will like this museum. There is also a large state-of-the-art playground for all age groups that the kids love! Picnic areas available as well. more
