The Mighty Moose

Let us now continue with our tour by moving into the Wild Life Gallery
This section is made up of several diaramas depicting wild life from all over the Province of Alberta. This displays use real animals that had died and were preserved. The front part also uses real materials while the backdrop is a painting
Here is one showing the moose. This has always been one of my favourite exhibits
