“Evolution of Life”

There are about 8,000 specimens in this room alone. They are mostly all real, except for some, like the human skeletal reconstructions. Various beautiful to tiny insects, seeds and fruits full of gimmicks by the plant, various forms of marine life, and mammals with various kinds of teeth are displayed. You’ll be able to experience how diverse the forms of organisms are.

The Museum of Natural History stores as many as 1.6 million specimens of natural history, and it selects only the best one percent of them for its permanent displays. Many of the specimens are for research, and the museum sometimes opens them to the public in special exhibitions.
