__** Never, ever release living materials into local ecosystems. **__ Your animals and plants have been grown in a laboratory environment and could contaminate local populations. Some of the plants are considered to be invasive. If living materials cannot be kept in the classroom, they should be frozen and then disposed of as waste material. __AMSTI does not recommend any out-of-class adoptions to students for any of the organisms that AMSTI provides.__
