You can not only look at the most beautiful collections of butterflies and insects, but see, touch and hold in your hands the living inhabitants of this corner, such as chameleons, stick insects, snakes, frogs and toads, scorpions and spiders, noses, pythons, monitor lizards, lizards, turtles and mice, a pig and rabbits, a herd of crickets and an almost saber-toothed squirrel that should not be trusted, although it ingratiates itself. Well, many thanks to the friendly and hospitable staff, thanks to whom visiting the exhibition becomes even more pleasant, informative and... more fun!!!

A very interesting museum. I thought that there would only be insects by name, but there were also reptiles and various animals. As for the insects themselves, there are no complaints. The collection is impressive, and it is clear that the conditions of detention are good. But I don’t quite understand with rabbits - a pen on the floor and the opportunity for children to touch them, the absence of a house to hide, does not look very humane. I am against such petting zoos

The museum is very small, but the children are delighted. The pleasure costs 200 rubles. There are insects, birds and reptiles. The museum itself occupies part of the historical building of the Elizabethan Academic Gallery. The building is beautiful. The view is again beautiful.

Great place to visit with children. Children are delighted with the opportunity to touch mice, rabbits and some lizards. This can captivate you for an hour with another, small but very interesting exhibition, the owner is friendly and will be happy to tell and show everything.

Отличное место, замечательный руководитель этого музей, увлечён своим делом, чисто, красиво, есть контактый зоопарк, очень много насекомых, которых раньше не видела.

Потрясающее место, в котором не только насекомые, но и животные и пресмыкающиеся. Многих можно потрогать. НО, хочется обратиться ко всем родителям, следите чтоб ваши дети не замучивали животных! Когда трёхлетние безалаберные дети берут малюсеньких мышат, не соображая, как нужно брать мышку, чтоб ей было не больно, или что не надо таскать кролика по вольеру, ....больно смотреть!!

Советую всем посетить этот музей,если будете здесь гулять,ни капельки не пожалеете,особенно деткам понравится!очень вежливый мужчина,что там работает,спокойно все объяснял и предлагал да и самим можно было попросить подержать хамелиончика,змей и т.д. заплатив за вод фоторгафируйся сколько хочешь с кем хочешь,кого хочешь.

I am biased towards museums with animals, especially insects. However, I and most importantly the children really liked this museum. Insects, reptiles, amphibians and some mammals feel at ease. Treated with attention and care. Some can be touched and fed. The guide is pleasant and it is clear that the person cares about his animals. In short - I recommend it.

A must visit. The museum is not only insects, but also freshwater ones, snakes, lizards, etc. They managed to fit so many animals into a small room - well done 👍🏽 Friendly museum workers take some of the inhabitants out of their cages for the public to see, let them touch and take photographs. Many cells are open in principle, full contact with harmless individuals is ensured Very funny comments are written on the cells ☺️ For adults, visit is 300 rub. Thanks to the staff for keeping an eye on the animals and insects)

A wonderful museum. Very good staff. They come up and tell us. Not many people. Adult ticket 300 rub. It is interesting specifically for living reptiles. There are also insects, both live and pinned to the stand.

Thank you so much for this wonderful place!!! We got a lot of impressions! We discovered new insects and reptiles. Everything is clean, all the animals are well-groomed and fed)) I really liked the good-natured employee)) The prices are reasonable. Thank you for your availability!!! Be sure to visit this place!!!

the place is wow! very unusual and educational - the world of living insects. And many thanks to Valentin for such a corner of nature in our city!

Must visit place for your kids

A wonderful place - all the terrariums, aquariums and cages are clean and tidy, all their inhabitants look good. The explanatory texts are a special delight. This place was clearly created and maintained with a lot of love.

Great interactive museum! Small but very cozy. My son (10 years old) was delighted and didn’t want to leave! I recommend visiting.

An incredibly wonderful place, a very multifaceted exhibition, a good representative who is responsive and tells a lot of interesting things, we were impressed by the many choices, including tactile reptiles leaving behind good memories, a note to everyone about visiting such a wonderful place 🙌 And the most important thing is cleanliness and well-groomed 👏👏👏 Rejoice for the living world

Previously, this museum was in a slightly different place and I spent a lot of time there as a child, sometimes with my mother, and sometimes on my own. I held snakes, spiders, a blue-tongued scene in my hands, and brought crickets home😁. And while walking with my husband and mother in the flower garden, we saw the exotarium and decided to go in, and it turned out that it was the same museum only in a new format. The animals there do not evoke sympathy, excellent conditions, clean, well-fed, with fancy living plants. Beauty and nothing more, I would like to express my gratitude to the person who has been involved in the museum for about 27 years and is passionate about it. Some animals you can touch, a very cute hedgehog, rabbits. Well, overall great. Thank you for your kind attitude towards animals and educating the people)
