===Tiny Giants=== Tiny Giants, formerly called B.U.G.S., is an exhibit featuring invertebrates and fish. It is held in a building called The Millennium Conservation Centre, and the building displays over 160 species, including [[western honey bee]]s, [[leafcutter ant]]s, [[emperor scorpion]]s, [[Trichonephila edulis|golden orb weavers]], [[Trichonephila inaurata|Madagascar orb weavers]], [[Brachypelma smithi|Mexican redknee tarantulas]], [[bird-eating spider]]s, [[desert locust]]s, [[Aurelia aurita|moon jellyfish]], [[Partula (gastropod)|partula snails]] and many others. It also features a large coral reef aquarium with corals and over 200 reef fish. The Millennium Conservation Centre aims to be environmentally friendly, constructed from materials requiring little energy to produce, and generating its heating from the body heat of both the animals and visitors. In May 2015, an exhibit called "In With the Spiders" opened in the exhibit as Europe's first and only spider walkthrough exhibit. It houses many different types of spiders, including one of the United Kingdom's most endangered animals, the [[Great raft spider|fen raft spider]],<ref name="bugs">{{cite web | url = http://www.zsl.org/zsl-london-zoo/whats-on/catch-up-with-the-b-u-g-s,122,EV.html | title = Catch up with the B.U.G.S! | publisher = [[Zoological Society of London|ZSL]] | access-date =6 March 2008}}</ref> as well as [[golden orb weaver]]s.
