From the Large Frogmouth to the Minke whale and from the Trichia villosa to the common wombat, the animal world features a vast range of forms and colors here.
There is a lot to experience: hearing singing whales and buzzing insects over the headphones. Seeing the small mouth of an ant or hairy legs of a spider through a magnifying glass. And stroking the fur of a deer or wild boar.
Children with a thirst for knowledge can particularly learn a lot at the fascinating family workshops: every Sunday, families solve interactive research tasks after a stimulating introduction on a special biology-related topic.
