The mission of the museum is to inspire wonder, discovery and responsibility towards our natural and cultural world. This place will enthrall you. It has three floors of permanent exhibitions, which show the world's rarest shark, the largest necked dinosaur, the Zuni Fetishes (a tribute to the artistic skills of the Native Americans) as well as an insect Zoo. The museum opened its doors to the public in 1913 and has captivated audiences from around the world ever since.
