Highlights of the exhibit include interactive displays and dioramas featuring more than 19 feline species from around the world, including jaguars, lions, tigers, leopards, bobcats, and wild cats, as well as a skeleton of a cheetah.
Because we understand that some people will be unable to visit the exhibition or might like to take more time to explore the material, we bring you the "Cats! Wild to Mild" web site.
Much of the content from the exhibit is presented in these pages, as well as the complete Teacher's Study Guide that accompanies the exhibition. We hope you enjoy your visit, whether it is "real" or "virtual."
