Good Day Atlanta viewer information: June 9, 2023
ATLANTA - Survival of the slowest, the newest exhibit inside Atlanta’s Fernbank Museum: Opening to the public tomorrow and remaining on display through early September, the exhibit highlights animals that don’t always get the lion’s share of attention — species often considered slower and weaker, but that actually have unique adaptations to help them thrived in the wild. And you can’t really have an exhibit about animals without actual animals, so "Survival of the Slowest" features more than a dozen of them, including a two-toed sloth, bearded dragon, and hedgehog. We’re told by exhibit designers (Little Ray’s Nature Centres, in partnership with the Canadian Museum of Nature) that most of the animals featured are rescues which cannot be released back into the wild, and that they’re regularly rotated to allow for "quiet time" out of the public eye.
