The BUGmobile is the entomology classroom that comes to you!

The BUGmobile is the entomology classroom that comes to you! When you step on board this mobile bug zoo, classroom and laboratory, you are welcome to just look – or you can touch and hold a few of the animals here, with supervision of course. The Insectary itself is home to about 150 different species. Tarantulas, cockroaches, scorpions, and pill bugs are just a few of the live insects.
