Only a quick visit as donated two specimens. A puff adder and a bat! Dr Naidoo showed us around briefly and we'll definitely go back. It was v well laid out and educationalVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure

It's not very easily found as there is no sign or location of this magnificent display. Once I found the building, I was very impressed as museums has numerous collection of insects, mammals and different species of birds. The animals are well preserve, interpreted, and various items of artistic displays are very impressive with information of each display. The technicians displayed sounds of animals which gives more clarity of the animal in real life. There is a small display of cultural & local artist. This scientific museum is a significance for the education of the public. Well done!

I spent 4 days the research centre to collect data for my MSc thesis. The ornithological collection was in good condition and it was easy to find what I was looking for. The curator and his assistant were both very nice and accommodating people who ensured my work proceeded smoothly.

Amazing diromas that depict real life ecosystems of the specimens.clean n quiet,with wonderful videos that contains vast information for those who are not keen on reading. Friendly staff that is always ready to assist with questions.

Good display of wildlife of South Africa. Good commentary of the animals. But doesn’t show a map where their regions are located. Be sure to check out the bird exhibits.

The place is very educational. The technician assistant for mammals did a very interesting presentation.

Excellent place to see a huge and diverse collection of skinned birds

Very pleasant experience with friendly people and vast amounts of information to share
