Durham, North Carolina is known as the “City of Medicine,” and is the center for a lot of cutting-edge science and technology. One of the best places to visit in Durham is the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science. Its new Explore the Wild exhibit—featuring diverse animals and wetlands—inspires SciGirls Sarah, Valencia and Sophia to find out what kinds of creatures live in North Carolina’s wetlands.
Teaming up with Ariana Sutton-Grier, a biologist at Duke University, Sarah, Valencia and Sophia go on a mini Bio-Blitz adventure that takes them to a cypress swamp, a salt marsh, and a pocosin forest.

Imran and Nabiel visit SciWorks in Winston-Salem, where the animals and barnyard exhibit get them thinking about why certain animals are found on farms while others aren’t.
