Created by the Australian Museum, Sharks invites you to explore the fascinating, and often misunderstood, world of sharks. Learn through artefacts and tactile displays, learn all about conservation, sharks’ impact on oceans, and efforts to protect sharks.
To celebrate Wildlife Photographer of the year arriving at Auckland Museum we are encouraging you to get up close and personal with the wildlife in your own backyard!
All the way from the Natural History Museum in London, join us for our Members' Preview of the world-renowned Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition!
