The exhibition
Animal Inside Out
6 April – 16 September 2012
10.00 – 17.50
Waterhouse Gallery
See the astonishing anatomy and inner beauty of some of the largest and most curious creatures in the animal kingdom at the UK premiere of Animal Inside Out.
Open late on the last Friday of every month throughout the exhibition's duration.
Ostrich plastinate
Discover nearly 100 plastinated and capillary specimens, from the tiny frog to the enormous elephant. Explore the intricate insides of these creatures and discover their comparative anatomy and biology.
See whole animals like the impressive giraffes, the elephant and the ostrich, to small intricate parts like a hare's brain. Walk through the exhibition and notice the different systems that keep us all alive from the nervous to the muscular and the reproductive to the skeletal.
The exhibition design creates a striking atmosphere and enhances the beauty of the anatomical specimens. Catch your breath when you get close to the large creatures particularly - the 4-tonne elephant is the heaviest specimen we have ever had in the Museum.
Please note photography is not permitted in the gallery.
