While you may not be able to see family or friends for special occasions or birthdays due to social distancing, The Virginia Living Museum in Newport News is offering a unique way to send messages.

For a certain price, you can send a personalized video message with a wild animal to your loved ones (or even yourself!) with a message. Videos will be 30 to 60 seconds long and will be delivered to your email address within 5 business days.

Featured animals include horseshoe crabs, snakes, salamanders, owls, and even turtles. For details on pricing, visit the Virginia Living Museum’s website. TheVLM.org/Virtual-Messages
