Cambridge University Museum of Zoology

A combination research facility and zoological collection, the museum is a part of the Department of Zoology at Cambridge University. It is located in a modern buiding on Downing Street, near the Sedgewick Museum of Geology and the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.

The museum houses permanent exhibits of life forms, organised from the very simplest organisms and vertebrates up to birds and mammals. Both fossil and currently living species are represented in the collection on display. In addition, the museum shows temporary exhibits, made to illustrate a particular scientific or zoological theme. In particular these temporary exhibits are built to celebrate National Museums Week and National Science Week.
