The Canada Goose Arctic Gallery at the Canadian Museum of Nature is an awesome new permanent gallery that will allow visitors to learn about the Arctic geography, ecosystems and sustainability, as well as the impacts of climate change.
Discover real ice in this multimedia installation that uses video, sound and touch to introduce visitors to the Arctic.
A beluga, narwhal, caribou, musk ox and polar bear are just some of the animals that you will be able to learn about in the new Canada Goose Arctic Gallery.
View a large deconstructed mural in the Gallery.
The climate section features a polar bear, as well as a camel, symbolizing the new discovery that camels lived in the High Arctic about 3 million years ago when the Arctic was warmer than today.
