Outside the Museum of Zoology

Uncover the fascinating stories behind our collections, from the beetles of Charles Darwin to the tale of our fin whale.

Why is there a fin whale skeleton in Cambridge? What can we learn from our Dodo skeleton? What did Darwin collect here and on the Voyage of the Beagle, and what can these collections tell us about him and his ideas on evolution? Hear these stories and more on a guided tour around the Museum of Zoology.
