museums in london Restoring Grass in the American Bison and Pronghorn Diorama

Light and heat took a toll on the prairie grasses in the American bison and pronghorn antelope diorama since its installation in 1942, leaving them brittle and dry. With buffalo grass and blue grama grass in short supply, the Museum coordinated with a prairie preserve to secure the replacements needed. Volunteers were enlisted to arrange the grasses into realistic clumps placed within "grazing range" of the bison.

The restored Hall of North American Mammals reopened October 2012.
