Want to get up close and personal with killer sharks, crocodiles, snakes and large mammals without the fear of being bitten?

Like to think of yourself as a nature lover but don’t really want to head outdoors in the searing summer heat?

Need to hire a mountain lion, camel or reindeer for the next Christmas party?

Seen the movie A Night at the Museum and loved it?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above then one of Perth’s best-kept secrets is well worth a visit.

Located in Guildford, about 12 km from the centre of Perth, is The Museum of Natural History and Academy of Taxidermy.
