Have a closer look at more than 1500 animals! While native animals are displayed on the ground floor, you can find animals from all over the world in their zoogeographic regions on the basement floor. At the rear of the museum’s ground floor a newly designed treasure vault is situated displaying 50 incredible fossil specimens, the masterpieces.
Why are there no gorillas in South America and no guanacos in the Serengeti? The Zoo Geography show explains why certain large areas differ from others in the characteristic composition of their fauna.
Absolutely cool are the native animals of the Ice Age. The Ice Age show in German lasts about 20 minutes and can be played at any time - just report to the welcome desk.
