Carnegie Museum of Natural History: Scoop on Poop!

Return to our Program Finder

Program Description

Fish, frogs, pythons, eagles, and elephants—they all do it, yet poop is one of those subjects that can be hard to talk about with a straight face. However, we can learn a lot from what animals leave behind. The Scoop on Poop!, a new traveling exhibit based on the popular book by science writer Dr. Wayne Lynch, leads visitors on an investigation of what poop is and how animals use it — to build homes, hide from enemies, attract mates, send messages, cool off, and, yes, even eat! A blend of science and fun, The Scoop on Poop! also explores the ways veterinarians, paleontologists, field biologists, farmers, Maasai tribesmen, and power companies make use of animal waste.
