  • Assessing the Representation of Live, Native, Terrestrial Mammalian Wildlife In
    Familiar Faces? Assessing the Representation of Live, Native, Terrestrial Mammalian Wildlife in Massachusetts Museum Environments Cheryl Ann Cheney A Thesis in the Field of Museum Studies For the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University Extension School November 2009 Copyright 2009 Cheryl Ann Cheney Abstract Captive display presents the public’s best opportunity to gain firsthand access to live animals under reasonably controlled circumstances, and the museum milieu can further enrich the experience by providing positive, pertinent, on-the-spot interpretation. A main premise of this thesis is that Massachusetts museums may not be taking full advantage of opportunities to introduce citizens to local mammalian biodiversity, what might be interesting or important to know about it, and the ramifications of our shared occupation of the environment. The zoo profession has embraced conservation education as “the best and most viable reason for the continuing existence of zoos [that] can be found” (Hancocks, Different xviii). Traditionally, zoos have concentrated their collection energies on the accumulation of exotic animals. When only exotic animals are on display, it is easier for visitors to ignore the issues that may directly impact upon themselves and their local environment. By collecting and exhibiting native species, zoos can demonstrate that they are of value and worthy of conservation, and educate visitors on how conservation might be accomplished. This thesis assesses: 1) the extent to which, among museums in Massachusetts with a live animal collection, native terrestrial mammalian wildlife species (NTM) are on exhibit; 2) the exhibition style and interpretive focus employed in the presentation of these animals; and 3) the factors that have informed the museums’ collection strategies in this regard.
