Extreme Mammals

September 23, 2016 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

$9.95 – $14.95

Opens September 23 at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science

Meet some the biggest, smallest, and most amazing animals of all time in the new temporary exhibition “Extreme Mammals.” Spectacular fossils, vivid reconstructions, fun interactives, and lifelike models trace the ancestry and evolution of mammals while exploring how and why some of them are so over the top. From tiny to huge, from sloth-like to speedy, with oversized claws, fangs, snouts and horns, this cast of characters is full of surprises. Included with general admission.

What’s an Extreme Mammal?

There are more than 5,400 mammal species alive today, and most share familiar traits. They give birth to live young, and have hair, four legs, a tail, and sharp front teeth. But not every mammal fits the bill. Extreme mammals have features or behaviors that deviate from norms. From tiny bats to egg-laying carnivores, find out how adaptations make mammals extreme.

Extreme Mammal is included with the purchase of a general admission ticket.
