Zoogeographic exhibition

The specificity of this exhibition is that it does not show animal species found in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but animals, many of which are considered exotic.

The exhibition is based on zoogeographic findings and, more precisely, the division of the Earth’s landmass into three zoogeographic regions: 1) The Northern World (Arktogea), which includes the Arctic, North America, Europe, Asia and Africa; 2) The New World (Neogea), which includes the mainland of South America; 3) The Southern World (Notogea), which includes Australia, Oceania and Antarctica.

The exhibition is especially attractive for the youngest visitors, who have the opportunity to see, as taxidermy, animals that they can otherwise only see on TV or film. Let us mention just a few of them here: leopard (Panthera pardus), Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris), American alligator (Alligator mississipiensis), imperial boa constrictor (Boa constrictor), yak (Bos grunniens), African buffalo (Syncerus caffer), as well as birds such as ostrich (Struthio camelus), and flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber).
