A museum experience 65 million years in the making, Age of Mammals displays some of the Museum’s—and the world’s—most awe-inspiring fossil mammals, many of them exhibited for the first time. Adding “how” to “wow,” the all-new Age of Mammals also shows as never before how a special class of animals—including human beings—evolved amid tremendous changes in the Earth’s environment, and dramatically altered the Earth in turn. Second Story’s seven media installations play a vital role in the first large scale new exhibition to debut at the Museum in twenty years.
