Exposition & jeux : à la rencontre des animaux mal-aimés

About

Automatically translated. Read the original French text.

Crow, pigeon, rat, fox, cockroach, mosquito, hornet, slug, bat… Do they bother you, sometimes disgust you, often scare you? What if we learned to know them better?

The Maison de l’animal dedicates a major exhibition to these species that share our everyday lives and that are judged (too often unfairly) undesirable. An opportunity to shift perspectives, discover their roles in the ecosystem, and reflect on our relationship with so-called "pest" animals.

An exhibition that will spark your curiosity…

On the program:

Educational content accessible to all, drawn from the work of the Muséum national d’histoire naturelle and several partner associations.

Graphic creations by Melissa Polge around the rat: sensory exploration and visual atlas of its representation across the centuries.

Games for young and old… including a treasure hunt to try as a family!

And to extend the experience, a selection of themed books available for open browsing.
