Cuban Solenodon

Brilliant specimen!

This is one of the places, that I eagerly want to comeback. There are innumerable displays with rare and extinct species.

@twilighter Yes, me too, I visited such a long time ago that my memories of this place are very faint, I love natural history museums and I consider this to be one of the worlds great museums of this type.

Cuban solenedons are definitely a dream to see, but I would mostly prefer them alive .

@CheeseChameleon2007 Sadly the chances of that are incredibly slim so for most of us with a fascination for these animals the next best thing to this is either to see the Hispaniolan solenodons at Zoodom in the Dominican Republic or the wild or to see taxidermy specimens in natural history museums.

@Onychorhynchus coronatus Yes, sadly, that is the truth. But a boy can dream, can't he?

@CheeseChameleon2007 You certainly can and perhaps one day you could go to the Dominican republic and see them (Cuba, veeerrryyy unlikely for several reasons) .

@Onychorhynchus coronatus I understand. Maybe I will be able to see an angwantibo someday? Perhaps a higher chance?
