NC Fort Fisher Aquarium presentation – SEA MOONS

Historic Assembly Building 720 Channel Blvd, Topsail Beach, United States

What would you need if you were going on a big adventure into the ocean? Every year, baby sea turtles hatch on North Carolina beaches and they start out on a great adventure of their own. With their big eyes to see the sights and their strong turtle instincts, they navigate the ocean until it's their time to return to the beach for nesting. Along the way, the moons of the sea help to guide them, but things aren't always what they seem. No live sea turtles are included in this presentation, though participants will get up close and personal with Aquarium Ambassador Animals.

NC Fort Fisher Aquarium Presentation – HABITAT FIXER UPPERS

Historic Assembly Building 720 Channel Blvd, Topsail Beach, United States

North Carolina's freshwater wetland habitats provide food, shelter, nurseries, and play space for native wildlife species. What happens when a wetland becomes unhealthy? How can we tell it's unhealthy? Participants become Habitat Fixer-Uppers by taking action to diagnose and clean up wetland habitat while meeting some of the animal species that call the freshwater wetlands home and learning how wetlands are important to us too.
