CELEBRATING THRIVING ANIMALS: How can slow and steady win the race? Does bigger always mean better? “Survival of the Slowest,” the newest exhibit at the Florida Museum of Natural History, takes a look at animals that are slow, small or weak and how they use these traits to survive and thrive. Visitors can get an up-close look at wildlife and daily presentations featuring a live sloth, hedgehog, iguana and more. Meet animals that have survived for millions of years despite being very slow, and learn about the puzzling sides of evolution and adaptation. Discover the difference between warm- and cold-blooded, discover why some animals need less food and see the unique ways they hide from predators. This is a bilingual exhibit available in English and Spanish. The exhibit will be on display through Sept. 12. Entrance to the exhibit is $10 for adults; $9 for Florida residents, seniors and non-UF college students; $7 for ages 3-17; and free for UF students and museum members. Museum
