This exhibit was on display February 15 through September 7, 2014.

Wolf to Woof is the world’s largest exhibition on the history, biology and evolution of dogs. Our visitors were drawn to this engaging exhibit about a favorite topic!

This family-friendly exhibit explored the fascinating history of dogs, their connection with wolves and what has made them man’s best friend. Four themed areas featured artifacts, multimedia displays, photo murals and dioramas on wild canines and modern dog breeds.

Visitors could explore interactive hands-on components such as a “howling area” and “guess what dogs are saying” activity, or going nose-to-nose against a dog’s great sense of smell. They learned how dogs have secured a special place in human society as an incredibly diverse and versatile species, serving as hunters, herders, guards and companions.
