Special Exhibit on Museum Animals at the Science Museum - Granada

The science museum in Granada, which is called La Parque de la Ciencias, has produced an artistic and scientific application of taxidermy. They have created scenes from the jungle with life-size animals in more 1.900 square meters. This is as close as you will come to taking a safari in Africa while still being in southern Spain. The exhibition will include scenes such as a stampede of 17 wild, mountain goats, the attack of a lioness on a group of zebras and two tigers hunting a group of wild boars. The wild nature exhibit ¨Museums Animals, The Art of Taxidermy¨ will be held from July 2009 until May 2010. You can visit from Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00am to 7:00pm and on Sundays and Bank Holidays from 10:00am-3:00pm. The museum is closed on Monday.
