NEW LGBTQ+ tours at the Museum of Zoology
The Museum of Zoology is offering another series of free LGBTQ+ tours, following on from the sucessful tours which ran in 2019.
‘Animals don’t do sexual identity; they just do sex.’
From same-sex sexual behaviour in giraffes and penguins to the scientists working in the field of zoology. How do the labels and categories we give animals affect the way we interact with the natural world?
Volunteer guides will share their personal selection of fascinating stories about gender and sex in the animal world at the Museum of Zoology.
