PHILIP L. WRIGHT ZOOLOGICAL MUSEUM TOURS
The Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum in the Health Sciences Building at the University of Montana is home to one of the major zoological collections in the northern Rocky Mountain region with more than 22,000 specimens.
As a participating partner with this Zoological Museum, the Montana Natural History Center can provide tours of the museum for small groups (15 people at a time). Led by MNHC volunteers, these tours are one hour, with a rotation through both the museum and corresponding lab.
Tours can be arranged by calling 406.327.0405. Please note MNHC requests at least two weeks advance notice to arrange tours.
