They have an area to play and swim. The girls got a chance to run around with them back and forth in the area. For the first time ever we were there at feeding time. We learned about their eating habits and watched them do some point training.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.3dinosaurs.com\/images\/blog\/5-2012\/ecotarium2.jpg\" alt=\"River otters\" \/><\/div>\n<p>While outside this trip we saw some wild turkeys and they were near the fox pen. The foxes where running back to forth watching the turkeys.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the other animals are hawks, owls, turtles, snakes, and skunks. Many of the animals they have are there for a reason. Often they can&#8217;t be released back into the wild. There is information about each animal and sometimes why they are there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mount Washington<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Mount Washington area is the first you see as you enter the building&#8217;s top floor. You can climb, check out fog, and experience hurricane force winds.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.3dinosaurs.com\/images\/blog\/5-2012\/ecotarium3.jpg\" alt=\"Mt Washington\" \/><\/div>\n<p><strong>Cool Moves<\/strong><br \/>\nThis looks at different types of movements: water, wind, and magnetic forces.
