It’s not big, nor are its resident critters (although some of them are alarmingly colossal by insect standards); however, this diminutive indoor "zoo" is a small marvel thanks to the enthusiasm and knowledge of its guides. Atlas beetles, dragon-headed crickets and thorny devils are all explained, admired and – on occasion – lifted out of their tanks to be handed around for closer inspection. Children are the main audience, but this is a hugely entertaining and educational experience on any level.
The detailed anecdotes about ants are utterly fascinating.
