Description
The flora and fauna of Big Bend National Park have adapted to survive in this harsh environment. This area has seen the rise and the demise of dinosaurs, but there is a creature here who has survived since before the dinosaurs. Even more amazing, they are unchanged. Does that make them perfect? Perhaps. Come to Panther Junction Visitor Center and decide for yourself. Join Ranger T. Porter as she explores the secret lives of the scorpions of Big Bend National Park, and what we can learn from them. 30 minutes.
