Sea Monsters Summer Exhibit
The Sea Monsters traveling exhibits from Mote Marine Laboratory, a marine science institution based in Sarasota, FL. This exhibit will engage visitors by revealing these mysterious and intriguing attributes of sea life. The free exhibit explains how the unusual animal characteristics are adaptations to extreme underwater environments.
Some features of the 12-foot exhibit include a Monster Makeover panel where visitors can see themselves with different monster attributes, Flod-down Sea Puzzle, mako shark jaws, a tooth-to-diet atching activity, touchable shark skin, inflated giant squid, and other interactive elements.
Tarpon Bay Explorers, the refuge’s official recreation concessionaire, will offer discounts on
their boat and touch tank excursions during the duration of the exhibit. Refuge staff is also planning additional free summer programs that will tie in with this exhibit, including crafts and storytelling.
