Exhibits and Experiences at the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory
There are lots of activities and experiences year-round at the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory, including Christmas holiday activities and permanent exhibits, such as:
Live Insect Galleries — Despite their small size, insects are vital to our environment and natural ecosystem. At the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory, you can find various fascinating animals, such as Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches, Rose-Haired Tarantulas, Giant African Millipedes, Giant Cave Cockroaches, Walking Sticks, Giant African Landsnails, and much more! In addition, visitors can get up close to even more critters, including exotic live insects and arthropods.
Leafcutter Ants — Leafcutter ants are nature’s original agricultural farmers, creating nests with interconnected chambers and hidden underground fungus gardens. Amazingly, thousands of these ants behave as a unit and work together in a complex society. Plus, the queen ant and her loyal workers keep busy all year, so visitors can watch as they cut and carry the leaves. Then, they march up and down their foraging trails and tend to their fungus gardens — it’s brilli-ant!
Moths Magnified — Appreciate the beauty of Ontario’s moths to learn about their ecological significance, as well as the essential role moths play in our ecosystem. Discover colours and patterns in larger-than-life photos by Ottawa photographer Jim des Rivières, revealing breathtaking details through magnification.
Magical Morphos (March Break 2025) — Coming this March Break, visit the tropical oasis of the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory to find thousands of blue morpho butterflies!
