Four permanent exhibitions document Nova Scotia's natural history, covering everything from the history of the Mi'kmaq and Acadians to the area's geology and marine life. Alongside these exhibits, the Museum of Natural History is hosting Illegal Killer Trade through January 13. Poachers and polluters make tremendous amounts of money exploiting endangered species and their habitats, and this exhibit forces visitors to consider the power of their purchasing decisions. After passing through a “customs checkpoint,” guests behold a cornucopia of food products, clothing and accessories, and souvenirs—including some that have been confiscated by Canada's actual border patrol. After learning about the environmental repercussions of these items, they must choose a memento, but choose wisely; the customs officers search each exiting guest with an endangered-species detector.
