Habitats provide homes for all living things from the tiniest ant to the tallest tree! Use this Smithsonian Learning Lab Collection to explore the stories and science of habitats, and the plants, animals and humans that call them home. Healthy habitats fulfill four basic needs: shelter, water, food and air.

The exhibition Habitat is developed by Smithsonian Gardens and made available by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service.
