Knuckles and Bones
Much of the material shown in the unique exhibition about knucklebones at the Natural History Collections has not previously been shown to the public before it opened in 2003. The exhibition, titled ”Knuckles and Bones", is presented in a separate knucklebone room next to the famous Whale Hall at the Museum.

How to survive an alien invasion?
Sometimes fish can be just as scary as aliens – especially if you are a tiny Daphnia looking into the mouth of a big perch. Until 2006 daphnids in Lake Myravatn were unaware of the vertebrates living in neighbouring lakes. That year perch was illegally introduced and the daphnids had to face a novel death risk. So how do they cope with this alien invasion? PhD student Ingrid Wathne from EvoFish is determined to find out.
