Tickets

Free with paid Museum Admission

Join us, and get up close and personal with the Museum's resident animals! Hear amazing stories about critters that are often misunderstood or overlooked. We have over 100 species of animals from L.A. and around the world living here. 

Come visit, and you might be able to hiss with the cockroaches, slither with the snakes or climb with the opossums. These engagements are 15-30 minutes in the Nature Lab on Level G.
