Abstract
COMMENDABLE enterprise in making the natural history department attractive to visitors has been shown recently by the Glasgow Art Gallery and Museum. Despite special difficulties caused by enemy action during the War, considerable material has been salvaged and displayed as a series of habitat groups in an Animal Court at the Museum. The first and second arches contain representative samples of African and Indian animals, and the others in preparation will display animals of Australia and the Scottish Highlands. To accompany each display the Museum is publishing a series of attractive booklets in which each animal typified is described and illustrated. "Animals of Africa" and "Animals of India" are already available.
