Animal Encounters

Your family can spend time with live animals during this interactive program at Discovery World. You'll visit the Great Lakes Future exhibit to meet the animal ambassadors living at the museum, including turtles and snakes. Staff members lead these encounters to help kids learn more about these creatures and why they matter. The program runs multiple times throughout the day on weekends, so you can choose a time that works best for your schedule. This is a great option if your children are curious about wildlife and enjoy hands-on learning experiences. Since the program happens regularly on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, it's easy to fit into a family outing. General admission to Discovery World is required to participate, and the museum offers both day passes and membership options if you think you'll visit again.
