Now through February 15
Get over that breakup! Wouldn’t you like to symbolically feed your ex to a hungry animal? You can get back at that not-so-special someone in your life while supporting education and conservation through a donation to the St. Louis Aquarium Foundation. It’s easy. Pick your feeder — a superworm, a veggie or a cricket — name it after your ex and one of the Aquarium’s ambassador animals will devour it. This year the veggies will be fed to Nigel, the Aquarium’s adorable North American Porupine. The superworms will be chomped by Percy the Opossum and the crickets will make a meal for Clementine the Chameleon. Go to stlaquariumfoundation.org/
