AMAZING AMPHIBIANS

Amazing Amphibians is an exciting, interactive maze that takes visitors on a tour of some of the world’s wildest amphibians. Visitors answer questions about all things amphibian to find their way through the twists and turns: metamorphosis, habitat, life cycle and conservation. They can glide like a tree frog on a 15’ zip line, check their jumping abilities against the longest leapers, or help out a neighborhood salamander on his migration to the mating pool. Some of the world’s largest, smallest and rarest amphibians are explored along the way.
