Lovabubble snails
How do scientists know if a habitat is changing for better or worse? 🐌Bubble snails are extremely sensitive to pollution and water changes, making them an indicator species for the health of an ecosystem. Their presence indicates healthy, clean waters. 🌊Amphibians are also sensitive to changes and can help biologists determine the ecological health of an area. Have you seen our snails roaming their exhibit? Come see them before #SEAtheChange ends.
