Once was a birthday party I was invited to. I love the dead stuffed animals. The paintings make the animals and sciences look real. My favorite animals were zebras, deer, and moose. A lot of the animals were big! I love the Academy of Natural Sciences! =  // __ Information __ // The Museum is Located at the corner of 19th street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia.
