From 10:00-4:00 we will feature the following: Flash and Thelma Memorial Hedgehog Rescue will be here with their hedgehogs. Learn about these adorable creatures which are the oldest living live bearing mammals. They were here with the dinosaurs and still thriving! The Space Foundation will be demonstrating “infrared technology”. It is not only one of the newest things happening in science but it is used by animals. Reptiles can “see” in infrared, which allows them to spot prey in the dark or behind foliage. See how it works and get a hands on demonstration illuminating how hot you really are! Join Professor Steven Veatch in a hands on demonstration and help peel back the layers of time. Work with Ice Age fossils from a Columbian mammoth to tiny Ice Age fossils. Help reconstruct a mammoth with everyday materials to understand how big they were. The Friends of Dinosaur Ridge will have a booth where you can explore several plaster cast dig boxes as well as decorate a T.rex to take home. John Patterson will have Dinosaur art lessons and demonstrations. So come on up and have a fun day at the DRC!
