Naturhistorisches Museum Basel, Augustinergasse 2, 4051 Basel
The world of animals is colorful and rich in form. For the fight for the object of desire, they arm themselves with different weapons. Animal behavior, mating patterns and family models are extremely diverse. Why? Because there are sexes.
With amazing stories, impressive specimens and interactive elements, we show you that animals spare no effort to bring offspring into the world: They dance around each other, show themselves in their most splendid dress and are not stingy with their charms. They fearlessly take on their competition to enjoy the pleasure of the stronger and in the end watch over their young as caring parents.
The exhibition is equally exciting for children and adults: while adults are amazed at the variety of mating types and the pleasure and frustration of animal lovemaking, children can try out what it feels like to grow up in the protection of a belly, egg or pouch. Numerous specimens of young animals are used to tell how they get their start in life and who paves the way for them to become adults.
The exhibition is based on objects and the basic idea of the special exhibition "Sexperts" of the Liechtenstein National Museum and the Liechtenstein Office for the Environment.
