Mammal Island

Part of Hall of Primitive Mammals.

An exhibition platform containing fossil skeletons of approximately eight quadrupedal animals.

Mammals have evolved to live on land, in the sea, and in the air. They move through their environments in many different ways: by hopping, running, flying, swimming, gliding, walking, climbing, and swinging from tree limb to tree limb.

Mammals are the most diverse group of vertebrates. This exhibit displays their evolutionary features.
