AWF and HMMA Announce Development of New Interactive Gopher Tortoise Habitat Display at Alabama Nature Center

The Alabama Wildlife Federation (AWF) and Hyundai Motor Manufacturing of Alabama (HMMA) are proud to announce the development of a new Interactive Gopher Tortoise Habitat Display inside the Discovery Hall at the Alabama Nature Center. HMMA is making this new interactive experience possible through a generous $50,000 investment.

This exciting new exhibit, currently under design, will serve as a signature, hands-on educational experience within the NaturePlex, the 23,000-square-foot Welcome and Education Facility at the Alabama Nature Center. Designed to immerse visitors in Alabama’s longleaf pine ecosystem, the display will feature a large-scale, crawl-through gopher tortoise burrow system that allows children and families to explore both above-ground and underground habitats in one connected experience.
