Did you know that we have river otters right here in the Schuylkill River? Come and learn about some of the amazing animals that not only chooses to call Philadelphia home, but also how they form relationships between other animals and form food webs! In our lab, we will be creating food webs to show how every organism plays a role in the ecosystem, ranging from the smallest algae to massive birds of prey! Visitors of all ages can learn more about the delicate balance that is required to maintain a food web, and how the addition or removal of a species can disrupt the entire system!
