New London Museum Exhibit to Enjoy on a UK Tour

On your next UK tour consider visiting London’s world-famous Natural History Museum. Recently, London’s Natural History Museum announced a brand-new exhibit. Among the large collection of natural wonders held in this London museum, this new exhibit shines a spotlight on nature’s venomous creatures.

The exhibit opened earlier this month and now visitors can experience an educational display of these venomous species. Standing as a prolific London landmark, the Natural History Museum collects specimens from across the globe, teaching visitors about rare specimens and natural artefacts.

As one of London’s biggest museums, the Natural History Museum can be found in South Kensington, close to two other renowned museums: the Science Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. For this reason, a visit to each of these museums would fit perfectly into a UK tour itinerary.  

If learning about the Earth and nature is aligned with your interests, you’ll be happy to discover the London Natural History Museum is home to five main collections focused on:

• Botany
• Entomology
• Mineralogy
• Palaeontology
• Zoology

With its variety of areas, the new exhibit gives visitors a close look at snakes, centipedes, scorpions, jellyfish and more. This broad exhibit gives visitors a chance to understand the role of venom in natures across the Earth’s diverse environments.

Dr Ronald Jenner, venom evolution expert at the Museum, says, 'Venom pervades the natural and human world everywhere on Earth and not always in the way you might expect. There are ants with venoms stronger than cobras, and other venomous predators are regularly served up in seafood dinners.'

As you would expect, this venomous exhibit features some of the world’s most dangerous creatures and can bring a unique educational experience to any UK tour. When planning a tour of London, the Natural History Museum is an insightful destination that will enlighten visitors about the Earth’s creatures and their habitats. The next time you’re in the UK, be sure to visit London’s Natural History Museum and discover its exciting range of exhibitions and attractions.
