The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents
     The Caterpillar Lab
with
Naturalist and Photographer Samuel Jaffe


BREWSTER, MA ­ The Cape Cod Museum of Natural 
History is proud to present The Caterpillar Lab 
with naturalist and photographer Samuel Jaffe. 
This is a drop-in event Thursday, July 27, 2017 between 10am and 3pm.

Caterpillars are diverse and fantastical 
creatures that are little known and stay hidden 
from everyday view. They are also relevant to a 
tremendous number of educational topics including 
metamorphosis, parasitism and predation, natural 
selection and evolution, and the importance of 
protecting green spaces and local ecosystems.

Join Sam and his highly trained staff as they 
transform the CCMNH auditorium into a caterpillar 
wonderland!  Observe first hand a caterpillars’ 
life cycle and develop a new sense of ecological 
scale and time. Symbolizing change, joy and 
color, the caterpillar is a miracle of 
transformation, resurrection, rebirth and regeneration.

The Caterpillar Lab is a New England based 
non-profit organization that is passionate about 
showcasing the amazing diversity of Northeastern 
caterpillars through educational programs, art, 
and science. They work almost exclusively with 
native New England caterpillars and breed many of 
them from year to year while others are collected 
locally in the field.  However, most of their 
caterpillars are reared from eggs collected from 
wild female moths. Join us for this spectacular event!

  Free with Museum Admission
