The Montgomery Zoo, Mann Wildlife Learning Museum
Back in year 2003, Mann Wildlife Learning Museum was bought by Montgomery Area Zoological Society and moved to Montgomery Zoo. The number of big animals on display was taken with bow and arrow by George Mann, the trophy hunter. Guests who are visiting Mann Wildlife Learning Museum can now touch and feel the antlers and furs of some of the animals on display. Animals are in 3-sided displays so you may walk up close and see the animals and their habitat. Every display is assembled from actual plans and natural materials, rocks, small critters, trees, sand collected, and dirt from an actual site where the displayed animals live its life.
