The Insect Zoo features many exhibits of live insects and their arthropod relatives in naturalistic settings. For a more in-depth discussion with trained staff, please call ahead to schedule a guided tour. During guided tours visitors can 'pet' some of the animals, including millipedes, walking sticks and tarantulas. |

Hours: Weekdays from 10-4. Saturday 11-2 Due to limited space, all large groups, schools, clubs, etc. must schedule a "guided tour"! Tours (scheduled during normal operating hours) can be arranged by calling (785) 532-BUGS (532-2847). Note: Beginning May 15, the intersection of Jardine and Denison will be closed. To access the zoo you must approach from the south on Denison. Sorry for the inconvenience. |
