Facility:California Academy of Sciences
Description:Explore, Explain and Protect the Natural World! Many visitors don't realize they can ask the Naturalist Center attendant to retrieve almost any item located in the collections cabinet. Lucky visitors who are bold enough to ask, get to touch and hold animal pelts, skulls, fossils and much more. Don't be shy or afraid. Ask the attendant to pull a specimen.

Nature Nest, designed for the youngest visitors (ages 5 & under) and their caregivers, is a place for children to explore and experiment through creative play.

The Steinhart Aquarium, which opened in September 1923, is the oldest, still-operating grand municipal aquarium in America. The aquarium's collection includes species found at no other institution in the world, as well as species that are extinct in the wild.
