Founded in 1939, the Museum of Natural History (Museu de História Natural de Campinas) strives to educate visitors about the nation’s vast biodiversity. The museum boasts a collection of thousands of animals, flowers and invertebrates in well-presented displays The exhibits represent some of the most important ecosystems of Brazil, including the Amazon rainforest, Atlantic Forest and São Paulo’s Atlantic coastline. There are artifacts from the Cerrado, which is a tropical savannah found in Central-West Region states such as Goiás, Mato Grosso Do Sul and Minas Gerais. Learn about the fauna and flora of the Pantanal wetland. This is the biggest tropical wetland area in the world and stretches from western Brazil into Bolivia. Spot numerous species of stuffed animals in the display cabinets. Among them are owls, rhea, toucan and other native birds. See an anteater, insects, lizards, rodents and turtles. Major highlights are a stuffed deer, jaguar, lions and wolf. To complement the animals are examples of trees, flowers and fungi. Information signs provide details of the scientific names of the exhibits and the region where each is found. Signs are in Portuguese only so you might want to bring a language dictionary with you to understand more.
