Animal Grossology exhibition follows in the footsteps of the overwhelming popular Grossology: the (Impolite) Science of the Human Body exhibition, and is the next generation in the Grossology series. Oozing with disgusting science and interactive learning games, the all-new Animal Grossology exhibition is a 6,000 square foot, science-in-disguise exhibition that features sophisticated animatronics, interactive challenges and imaginative exhibits that engage visitors and gives them a unique perspective of the animal kingdom. The Animal Grossology exhibition is based on the children’s book Animal Grossology: The Science of Creatures Gross and Disgusting by science teacher Sylvia Branzei. Both the book and the exhibition are educationally grounded in the theory that the best way to interest kids in science is to present it in terms they find most appealing.
And if it works in a book, just think what it will do in a larger-than-life, three-dimensional exhibition.
The Animal Grossology exhibition is arranged according to five thematic area: Dookie Lovers, Blood Slurpers, Slime Makers, Vomit Munchers and Other Gross Stuff – and uses sophisticated and imaginative exhibits to actively engage visitors.
Just imagine:
- See larger-than-life bloodsuckers and learn why they need blood and where they store it in their bodies
- Learn why a cat’s anatomy is the reason why cat’s hack up hairballs
- Become a scarab beetle in a retro “Atari-type” world by competing against each other in a challenging dung ball roll race
- Discover the mystery of the incredible tapeworm
- Observe an owl pellet and learn what owls eat
- Play Transfusion Confusion to discover which animals have what color blood
- Read many interesting factoids throughout the exhibit to learn about some of nature’s most interesting critters.
Yes, it’s gross, but behind every exhibit is a sound scientific base. In addition, scientific information is in great supply on large oversized book pages surrounding the exhibits. “Gross Factoids” are used to emphasize science facts and they are positioned on both the front and backsides of each book wall.
Visitors not only have an entertaining experience, they involve themselves through educational interaction in the process. And that’s precisely the idea—it’s educational, it’s fun and it’s gross. That’s what Advanced Exhibits, a division of Advanced Animations, L.L.C. dreamed up.
There are two identical 5,000 – 6,000 square-feet Animal Grossology exhibitions available. Contact Advanced Exhibits for details.
