Member Tour: Notable Nutrition: Favorite Foods in the Animal Kingdom
Saturday, November 15 (10:30 am - 11:30 am)
Have you ever thought of animals as the original “foodies”? Their dietary preferences and abilities will astound you. How do cassowaries sustain the very forest in which they live? Why aren’t poison frogs poisonous in captivity? Do anteaters and tamanduas eat SoCal ants? Why do giraffes prefer to walk upwind to eat acacia? What exactly is “chewing cud”? What does the word “king” indicate in a snake’s name? Why do orangutans have long childhoods? Come learn all of these answers, and many more, when you join us on a walking tour that focuses on the “foodie” side of wildlife, on Saturday, November 15th!
