We Meet Some Extreme Mammals!
We caught a preview of the new exhibit at Fernbank Museum of Natural History – EXTREME MAMMALS! This awesome exhibit goes through the evolution of how mammals came to be! We are one diverse group, we come in all sizes, shapes, coverings and live in all kinds of habitats! We make up one special class, so we’re giving out class superlatives to take you through this amazing exhibit!
