Museum of Man and Nature

This about the German museum; for the Canadian one, see Manitoba Museum.

The Museum Mensch und Natur (English Museum of Man and Nature) is a natural history museum. It is a tenant of the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich, Germany.

Bear exhibit[]

In 2006, the museum was due to receive the stuffed and mounted body of "Bear JJ1", nicknamed "Bruno" in the German-language press, a brown bear that was shot dead by a hunter as a public safety measure after several unsuccessful efforts to capture him alive.^[1] (JJ1 had been part of a wildlife restoration program in Italy but walked across Austria into Germany.)^[2] The bear will be put on display next to the last bear previously killed (in 1835) in Bavaria.
