Bugs! A Rainforest Adventure
Highlighting the extraordinary world of insects, BUGS! - A Rainforest Adventure focuses on the life cycles of a praying mantis and a butterfly from their birth to their inevitable encounter in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia where predator meets its prey.
More than forty tropical insects are featured in A Rainforest Adventure - BUGS! The audience will view the birth of hundreds of praying mantids, captured in minute detail in Large Format; see a caterpillar hatch from a single tiny egg to metamorphose into a butterfly, and watch as a praying mantis snaps up a fly for its dinner—another giant screen first. A variety of other tropical animals which make their way across the gigantic screen, some magnified 250,000 times their normal size, includes tarantulas, scorpions, vipers, and Jungle Nymphs as well as a million bats as they flit through the jungle in search of insects which they consume nightly by the ton. It's survival of the fittest!
