Specimens have long
provided a great way to learn about and enjoy the Animal World. The
great naturalists, Hooke, Darwin, Audubon, and others collected specimens
for their own collections and for museums. Some of the world's best
are in the United States. These include the Smithsonian National
Museum in Washington, D.C., the American Museum of Natural History in New
York, the Carnegie Natural History Museum in Pittsburg, Pa. and the
Natural History Museum of Los Angeles.
Individual cannot hope to duplicate such collections, but can
build excellent collections. Not only are they educational, but they
are also a great addition to any decor. Natural Specimens can
be greatly enhanced through the use of miniatures, such as those in or
