Live Animal Feeding – Ocean Habitat
Watch live ocean animals being fed at NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
Your family can watch staff members feed the marine animals living in the museum's 10,000-gallon Our Changing Oceans aquarium during this short, hands-on program. You'll get to meet the Living Collections staff and learn more about the ocean habitat while observing several species, including angelfish, tangs, grunts, balloonfish, and lobsters. The program runs for about 15 minutes and requires no advance registration—just show up and join in.
This is a great option for families looking for a quick, engaging activity at the museum. Since it's a walk-up program offered multiple times per week, you can fit it into your visit without planning ahead. There's no admission fee for the program itself, and it's suitable for all ages. The feeding takes place on the first floor of the Nature Research Center, making it easily accessible as part of your museum exploration.
