The Thomas McCulloch Museum is located in the Biology Department at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 in Halifax and houses the McCulloch Bird collection. Other exhibits include the Lorenzen's mushrooms, deep sea corals, sea shells, dinosaur fossil, whale vertebrae, beetles, butterflies and live tropical fish. Several times a year we endeavour to bring in outside displays.

Lorenzen's Mushrooms :
In 1976, Dr. Constance McFarlane, a graduate of the Biology Department arranged for the donation of the ceramic mushrooms, all native to Nova Scotia. The mushrooms were sculptured by Alma and Ernst Lorenzen in Lantz. The mushrooms are exact replicas modelled after specimens found in Nova Scotia. Subsequent purchases have enlarged the collection considerably.
