Camp-In Tadpoles

COSI Team Member Chris Rusen gives us an up-close look at the African Clawed Frog tadpoles that 2009 overnight campers will take home with them. Believe it or not, once these tadpoles have matured into frogs, they may live 15 years or more. Check out this story about a long-lived Camp-In frog: http://millioncampers.ning.com/profiles/blogs/18-years-old-and-still. Want to spend the night at COSI and take home one of these tadpoles yourself? Learn how here: http://www.cosi.org/visitors/family/overnights/
