We've got live dermestid beetles on display in our lobby. Their mission: to clean this Great Horned Owl specimen. Many Museums, including us, use dermestid beetles to remove even the most minute pieces of flesh and fur from the bones. The result? A clean and pristine specimen fit for a Museum collection and future research. Visit us and watch the process unfold live. https://royalsaskmuseum.ca/visit/events/exhibit-creepy-crawly-cleaners
