October 7 through 9 is Wild Weekend at Liberty Science Center! All weekend, you're invited to embrace your wild side and celebrate some of our favorite wild animals, such as naked mole rats.
For these three days only, you can experience our "Naked Mole Rat Trail." You'll get to travel to different exhibitions in our building – such as Communication, Infection Connection, and Touch Tunnel – and try some activities designed to help you understand the life of a mole rat. For example, when you crawl through the Touch Tunnel, you'll wear whiskers to help find your way through the dark.
But before you step into the life of a mole rat, let's take a look at some wild facts surrounding these fascinating, tiny, hairless creatures:
These facts only scratch the surface at how wild naked mole rats really are. Meet them in-person during your visit to the Science Center! You can find them on the third floor in our Eat and Be Eaten gallery.
