insect zoo

Arthropod display facility

An insect zoo is a facility where live insects and related arthropods are displayed for education and observation.

Unlike traditional zoos focused on large animals, insect zoos showcase beetles, butterflies, spiders, and other invertebrates, often allowing visitors to handle specimens: The children loved the insect zoo's tarantula exhibit.
