The exhibition "Between dog and wolf" is presented in two parts, allowing visitors to discover these two animals that are so close genetically and so different in our imagination.The first part on the wolf comes from the exhibition "Wolf - Back among us" created by the Natural History Museum of Fribourg.At a time when the wolf is at the heart of the debates, it is time to offer everyone the opportunity to make their own opinion, based not on emotions but on proven facts.Through imagination and scientific data, historical facts and current events, the first part of the exhibition offers many avenues of reflection and the possibility, for everyone, to answer the question: what place am I ready to leave to the wolf? The second space of the exhibition, realized by JURASSICA, is dedicated to the best friend of the Man, the dog.A genetic comparison between a grey wolf and a dog will give a clear verdict: they are one and the same species. The evolution of the wolf towards the dog went through a rapprochement of the canids with our ancestors. The den was transformed into a kennel, the forest gave way to the city. The dog has found a place in the human way of life. But as the wolf would say to the dog, in exchange for security and well-being, should we sacrifice our freedom?
