"Toxic newts capable of poisoning humans, and the snakes that eat them. Delicate beauties and nightmarish monsters from the ocean depths. Plants that make a living sucking the life out of other plants..." For all that and more, mark your calendar for UW-Madison’s annual Darwin Day(s), February 9-11, 2012.
The Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery will play host to a series of lectures and science stations, free and open to the public, that explore the science of evolution.
The UW-Madison Darwin Day website supplies the schedule of events, speakers and themes, and a list of teacher resources.
"There is grandeur in this view of life... from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved."
--Charles Darwin
