This Earth Month, meet Alicia Goode, Museum Taxidermist, whose work helps bring California’s ecosystems into the OMCA galleries through taxidermy and scenic fabrication. 🌿🐿️

Taxidermy isn’t just preservation—it’s a powerful way to study, protect, and connect with wildlife up close.

Step into the Gallery of California Natural Sciences and “Good Fire: Tending Native Lands” to explore the state’s incredible biodiversity—from Yosemite to the coast—and discover how we can all play a role in conservation. 🌎
