The experience

Nature's North Wildlife Gallery sits apart from a typical specimen display. Greg and Dean Robertson, two world-renowned taxidermists and artists, have arranged each animal to capture a specific moment: a creature at play, mid-stride through its habitat, or caught in an emotion the brothers saw in life. The gallery tells stories through these frozen scenes rather than rows of mounted heads. You'll move through at whatever pace suits you, stopping as long as you want in front of each piece.

A tablet provided at the start becomes your guide. It holds detailed information about each species: fun facts, animal tracks you can study, recordings of their vocalizations, videos showing them in the wild, and a quiz to test what you've learned. Headphones are available if you prefer to listen to text-to-speech narration while you take in the art. Many visitors use this to free up time for looking without reading. The whole experience typically takes 30 minutes to two hours depending on how deep you go into each animal's story.

Admission and parking are both included in the price. Infants and small children can come in a pram or stroller, and service animals are welcome. The gallery suits all fitness levels since you're moving through an indoor space at your own speed with no required walking distance or terrain.
