The Life Sciences Gallery has dioramas of the ecological regions in
the province. You can visit the different regions - grassland, parkland and
forest - and learn about the animals that live in different habitats.
There are exhibits to show how animals adapt to winter. There is even
an inside view of a beaver lodge.
In the Earth Sciences Gallery you can see how Saskatchewan once looked.
Long ago the
province was covered with mountains, volcanoes, seas and glaciers and was
home to giant reptiles, dinosaurs and other extinct creatures.
The First Nations Gallery contains dioramas, murals, sculptures and
colorful displays to help you learn about the art, traditions and
lifestyles of the First Nations people. One large diorama is a winter
camp with buffalo-hide tipis. An Elder is telling stories to the
children. There are exhibits of stone tools, medicines, furs and guns.
