Talking Zoology in the Zoology Department Lecture Theatre

Restless Creatures

11am to 11.45am

We rarely think about how we move.  But, as zoologist, writer and Cambridge Science Festival regular Dr Matt Wilkinson will show you, getting creatures to propel themselves from place to place is one of the most important things that evolution ever did – one that’s dominated the history of life ever since.  Find out how the need for movement explains everything from flowers to opposable thumbs, and on the way discover why there are no natural wheels or flying monkeys.  You’ll never look at life in the same way again!

Suitable for all ages.

Doors open at 10.50. Arrive early for a good seat.
