SEA Days: Small Animal, Big Appetite

11:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. Imagine if you had to eat in water…that wouldn’t be an easy task! Animals, including Mantis Shrimp, eat every meal while submerged and have come up with unique adaptations to be more successful whilst dining. Meet local scientists who study these small invertebrates and their unusual feeding habits.
