Nature FAQs - Answers to questions Earthplace commonly receives about animals.

The Animal Hall, as well as outdoor display cages, house wildlife that cannot be released due to their injuries. The hall also houses domestic animals which are part of the teaching collection.  Earthplace also provides Westport and surrounding communities with a wildlife hotline managed by staff naturalists during regular hours. The hotline provides answers to questions related to area wildlife as well as those related to environmental concerns and other natural history questions.

Adopt an Animal - You can help us maintain the resident animals that serve as our educational ambassadors.  Food, veterinary treatment, shelter and daily care are costly.  By "adopting" one of these animals you are contributing directly to the animal's upkeep. See more details about our Adopt an Animal program.
