The Cockrell Butterfly Center at the Houston Museum of Natural Science is a stunning, living exhibit that showcases hundreds of live butterflies in a naturalistic rainforest setting. Home to exotic live butterflies, insects and plants, this walk-through rainforest environment is designed to be an interactive experience and is housed in a three-story glass structure. Butterflies flutter among and occasionally land on the visitors. During a typical visit, one can expect to see approximately 50 or so of the world s largest and most colorful butterfly species represented by over 1,500 butterflies living in the Center.
