EXTRA, the marketplace for scientific touring exhibitions.
This exhibition looks at recent findings by experts in animal behaviour and encourages us to reevaluate everything we know about these animals.
The exhibition is arranged to take visitors on a fun, sensory and interactive journey through three different topics:
In their skin
This is an active space where visitors compare their own physical skills to those of the animals, such as speed, agility, capacity to jump etc. They discover the different range of canine and feline body shape types and observe their characteristics.
In their heads
Plunged into a space decorated to put us on a level with the animals, visitors are invited to look, listen and feel like a dog or cat, with unusual immersive experiments. Great emphasis is also placed on animal communication, expression of emotions and on our decryption of their behaviour.
In our society
Dogs and cats are prevalent in our homes, on our streets and in our culture. This final section shows visitors the nature of our relationship with these animals over time, and the important role they play today in our society.
