Diorama Secrets, with Tim Bovard | Natural History Museum’s Curiosity Show

We are exploring more taxidermy at NHMLA, this time we are learning hidden details about the dioramas. Meet our African gorilla, see a herd of bison and some lurking predatory wolves, and learn why a swamp diorama got new river otters. Chris talks to Tim Bovard, the Museum’s head taxidermist, about how our dioramas are made and how we update them when they need a change.
