Natural history objects were part of the British Museum for a very long time, having formed a significant part of our founding collection from 1753. They continued to be displayed here for over 120 years, until 1881, when they began to leave for the new British Museum (Natural History) in South Kensington – known today as the world-famous @natural_history_museum.

This photo of a ‘Gigantic Irish Deer’ was taken by Frederick York in 1875 and shows the Museum’s North Geographical Gallery full of natural history specimens. As well as animals such as giraffes and rhinoceroses, extinct animals like mastodons, megatherium and giant deer were also on display.
