Description:
The Exhibit Museum of Natural History displays artifacts used in research at the University of Michigan. Feel dwarfed by standing next to the mighty T-Rex and get a sense of the size of prehistoric birds in the Hall of Evolution, home to the largest collection of dinosaur bones, fossils and extinct animals in the state. The Gallery of Michigan Wildlife offers a comprehensive show and tell of local biodiversity. The Hall of Anthropology on the fourth floor offers up a dose of human perspective with primitive tools, pottery and art found from around the globe.
