Dogs! A Science Tail, a hands-on science exhibition that highlights the dynamic nature of the bond between humans and dogs, and enables guests to experience the extraordinary way that dogs see, hear, and smell the world, is now on view at the California Science Center in Exposition Park (700 Exposition Park Dr, Los Angeles 90037). The highly interactive exhibition also invites guests to share personal photos and stories of their dogs on a photo wall.

The exhibition shows how the ability to understand and communicate with each other lies at the heart of the unique relationship between humans and dogs, and what makes this one of the most successful interspecies partnerships of all time. Dogs! A Science Tail is created and developed by the California Science Center with support from the Annenberg Foundation and Wallis Annenberg PetSpace.

Guests can explore the world from a dog's perspective through a variety of hands-on exhibits. Experiences range from listening to hidden sounds that dogs can hear but humans can't; excavating replicas of actual fossils to determine if they belong to wolves or dogs; walking an "invisible" dog through an interactive neighborhood to understand how pets strengthen the community; or testing your pop-culture knowledge during a game of "Jeopawdy!" based on the show Jeopardy!

To complement the exhibit, the Science Center is featuring Superpower Dogs in IMAX® 3D. Narrated by Captain America himself, Chris Evans, the documentary takes audiences on an immersive IMAX® adventure to experience the life-saving superpowers and extraordinary bravery of some of the world's most amazing dogs.
