I love Natural History Museums which are rich in anatomical preparations - one learns so much.Articulated osteological collections also, obviously.Mounted skins are FANTASTIC when done really well, but this is too often not the case.The paradox is that I have always learnt so much more in the older, dustier collections than in any new-fangled didactic collection bringing the era of the Playstation into these hallowed institutions.Richard Owen and Baron Cuvier did not require touch-screen interactive games to observe and describe their material.
