HOLDERNESS — The Caterpillar Lab is returning to Squam Lakes Natural Science Center for a three-day exhibit featuring a variety of New England caterpillar species with plenty to see and touch. "Caterpillars in Residence" will be at the Science Center Aug. 25-27, 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., and 1:30-4:30 p.m. daily. The exhibit is included with trail admission.Â
Educators from The Caterpillar Lab will teach visitors about metamorphosis and tell incredible but true stories about the creatures’ strange and surprising adaptations. Some caterpillars are camouflaged to look like twigs or snakes. Some have stinging spines or brightly colored baubles. Visitors will see up-close these little-known native critters munching on their food plants. Everyone is sure to see and learn something new.
