Museum of Anthropology Presents Taming the Wild Exhibition
California State University, Chico’s Museum of Anthropology opened its “Taming the Wild: Human and Animal Relations” exhibition on Tuesday, Dec. 11.
“The exhibit symbolizes the interrelationships between humans and animals, specifically the domestication, training, taming and religious significance humans have put on animals, focusing on non-Western cultures,” said Stacy Schaefer, professor of anthropology.
Students from an upper-division anthropology course designed their own displays for the exhibit.
The museum, located on the third floor of Langdon Hall on Warner and First Streets, offers exhibits free to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The exhibit will be closed Dec. 22-Jan. 7, then will resume the same operating hours Jan. 8 until May 17.
