The last time they came to the Creation Museum they showed us an expedition to the Caribbean Sea; and this time they’ll return in search of humpback whales! You can journey along with the Browns on a thrilling adventure in search of humpback whales in the warm waters of the Silver Bank by the Caribbean Sea!

Using unique props, specimens, breathtaking photography, storytelling techniques, and audience participation, this presentation will allow you to experience an actual expedition exploring the world of the humpbacked whales from the Caribbean Sea to the North Atlantic. You’ll see male humpback whales competing for mates and hear males singing underwater love songs to attract females. The highlight of the presentation is a swim with a mother humpback whale and her newborn baby. You’ll then journey on to Gloucester, Massachusetts where the Browns will join one of the Silver Bank whale researchers on another expedition boat as they travel to the humpback whales’ feeding grounds in cold waters of the Stellwagen Bank, off the coast of Massachuesetts. You’ll even see mother humpbacks teaching their babies how to catch their food by making “bubble nets”.

You can read more about the Browns at their website. They are a husband and wife underwater explorer team combining their talents as marine biologist, pilot, actor, comedian, artist, authors, lecturers, storytellers, educators, scuba diving instructors, award-winning underwater photographers.

These exciting shows will take place at 12:00 and 5:00. The cost for this presentation is just $4.00 per person (children under two admitted free).

The chameleons on display at the museum now are called quadricornis, or four-horned, chameleons. The museum’s male actually has 7 horns, and some males of this species have 8, although 4 is the most common number. The four-horned chameleon is a medium-sized species of chameleon from Cameroon. The male has an impressive sailfin on its back and on part of the tail. They are mostly bright green but sport robin egg blue, rust, and even yellow in places.

Watching a chameleon lay eggs can be exciting, as many staff discovered today. She will search for a suitable spot, then dig a hole or tunnel that is approximately 12” deep. She backs into the tunnel and deposits the eggs safely, then fills the hole in with dirt until it is practically undetectable.

We removed the eggs and placed them in an incubator for the duration of their development. It should be exciting watching the eggs hatch in about five months!
