A Prep Talk, Live from the Lab

Thursday, November 5
4 PM

Meet Mammalogy Collections Manager, 
Jeff Bradley.

What happens after a bird or mammal makes its way to the Burke? How do they go from frozen in a ziplock bag to beautifully prepared research specimens? Join Jeff Bradley, reporting live from the Prep Lab, to learn about the fascinating process of specimen prep, from flesh-eating beetles to cotton stuffing.

Note: Only one reservation is required per household, but the whole family can gather around to "join" the event.
