Museums are full of animals that were once hunted as trophies, such as this lion @Museum_Cardiff. Today, lions are thankfully protected, and these 'trophies' remind us of the beauty of these amazing animals and why we should conserve them #WorldLionDay 🦁
Today we say a very fond farewell to our @durham_uni conservation student Lindsey Sartin, who for the past 9 months has been working on many cool things including our historical taxidermy model of a Dodo 'Dudley' - hence a very Dodo themed farewell! museum.wales/blog/2651/New-…

The @NMWPrevCons team out and about today in our main hall tackling some serious sized painting housekeeping 🙂
One thing about Museum work is you always seem to be moving stuff around! In this case we are returning the economic botany collection back to its original store which was recently refurbished and is now bright, shiny and looking fabulous 😍
