Scales and Tails

To coincide with 麻豆网鈥檚 popular 麻豆网 Science Festival, Storiel has launched its latest  foyer display, on the theme reptiles.

Snakes, crocodiles and tortoises are some of the specimens on display that are on loan from Brambell Natural History Museum, School of Biological Sciences, 麻豆网. Several of the specimens are in jars of fluid and are still used for teaching. The display has been curated by Melissa Green, a zoology student volunteer and will be in place until the end of August.

It is intended to improve access to 麻豆网鈥檚 hidden museum collections as part of the 鈥淓ngaging Collections: Widening Access to Gwynedd鈥檚 Heritage鈥� project that is partly funded through the Heritage Lottery Fund. This will offer local residents and visitors a chance to enjoy and learn about the vast variety of specimens on display.
