When you look around the museum there are lots of animals on display, of course none of them are real and can't hurt anyone. Here are some pictures of the animals you might see around the displays, the chook and the lady bird are easy to find so is the cat, and the crab.

But we really want to know where "Pedro the naughty possum" is because he keeps moving around when there is nobody to see him.
