Polar bears, big cats, wolves, scorpions, snakes and sharks – the sheep are running for cover as the Museum is taken over by predators of all shapes and sizes! Developed by Questacon – The National Science and Technology Centre in Canberra, Eaten Alive – The World of Predators is an exciting and highly interactive exhibition that draws on recent research from scientists around the world. The exhibition is full of hands on activities for children. From well known carnivores such as sharks, lions and crocodiles through to predatory insects, it explores fearsome jaws and claws as well as some of the more subtle techniques used by predators to survive. Visitors will be in awe (if not a little scared!) by the large robotic crocodile, funnel web spider and death adder snake that sense your presence and respond accordingly. Don’t get too close or you may be ‘eaten alive’! Please Note: Weekend hours have been extended to 11.00am to 5.00pm for the duration of the exhibition. Open 9.30am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday.
