Each season there will be one or two new exhibitions in this dynamic area.

Current exhibition: From March 22, 2021 to March 12, 2022

The red fox – Hunter on silent paws

Thanks to its adaptability, the red fox is one of the most successful predators on earth.

Living among us as a cultural successor, the attitude of humans towards it is nevertheless very different. For some it is an irreplaceable health policeman and excellent mouse hunter, for others it is simply a hungry predator.

The exhibition of the Stilfserjoch National Park gives an insight into the biology and way of life of this widespread wild canid.

A second part shows the first, partly astonishing research results of the fox project launched in the Swiss National Park in 2016. The question is what will change for the red fox in the future with the return of the wolf.

Mountaineers and sleepers - Animals and plants in the mountains

Conditions in the mountains above the timberline are often described as extreme and hostile. In fact, they are very different from those at lower altitudes: winters are long, summers short, weather changes frequent and unpredictable. Nevertheless, thousands of living organisms inhabit these high altitudes. Due to their sophisticated specialisations, they are extremely vulnerable to change.
