Considered as one of the best museums in Islamabad<\/a>, the Pakistan Museum of Natural History (PMNH) was built in 1976. It is open to the public and is operated by the Pakistan Science Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are four sections within the museum, catering to earth sciences, botanical sciences, zoological sciences, and public services. The museum also has 6 galleries that aim to educate the people about Pakistan\u2019s natural history. The exhibits include fossils, animal specimens, plant specimens, rocks, gems, as well as life-sized sculptures of creatures that used to live on this soil thousands of years ago and are now extinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from functioning as a museum, the PMNH also acts as a research centre with more than 30 scientists engaged in actively researching more about the natural history of Pakistan. Meanwhile, the public services section hosts workshops, seminars, lectures, and other events to educate the masses about the importance of preservation and conservation of wildlife, natural resources, and native plants. The museum, particularly its Virtual Orientation Gallery, is ideal for kids if they want to learn more about the earth and its flora and fauna in an interactive manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Baluchitherium\"
The Life-Sized Baluchitherium Sculpture<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the largest mammals to walk the earth, the Baluchitherium was a hornless rhino that lived nearly 30 million years ago. The name originated from the words \u2018Baluchi\u2019 representing Balochistan, and \u2018therium\u2019 meaning beast. This is because it was initially discovered in the Bugti Hills in Balochistan. It is said that the mammal was around 18 feet in height. A life-sized model can be found on display in the grounds of the PMNH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Whale
The Whale Shark on Display Inside the Museum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Whale Shark is the largest fish in the world. It is a rare species with its population decreasing at an alarming rate. Called a Whale Shark because it resembles a whale in its size and feeding habits, this specimen is nearly 40 foot long and was 50 years old when it was found dead on the coast near Karachi in 2012. It weighed nearly 16 tonnes when it was found, and this is the biggest specimen ever found in the world.
