Does Liberty hold any interesting species?
Click to expand...
Not really. The museum was mostly geared for little kids and it exhibits cotton top tamarind, naked mole rats, red-footed tortoises, a few smaller herps, and a few fishtanks. A Lungfish was probably the most interesting species on display.
