Lindsay Wildlife Museum

Lindsay Wildlife Experience formerly known as Lindsay Wildlife Museum〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=June 11, 2015 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】access-date=2015-08-11 )〕 is a family museum and wildlife rehabilitation center in Walnut Creek, California. The museum is one of the oldest wildlife rehab centers in the United States, and a popular family museum in the San Francisco East Bay Area. Founded in Walnut Creek in 1955, the museum’s programs “connect people with wildlife to inspire responsibility and respect for the world we share.” The museum houses an interactive discovery room for children, a pet education section with small domestic animals, and rotating natural history and art exhibits. The on-site wildlife rehabilitation center treats nearly 6,000 injured or orphaned wild animals each year.
==History==
Lindsay Wildlife Museum was founded in 1955 by Alexander Lindsay as the Diablo Junior Museum. It became the Alexander Lindsay Junior Museum in 1962 after Alexander Lindsay died at 44. In 1965 it moved to a water-pump house in Larkey Park in Walnut Creek. In 1970 the museum started the first formal wildlife rehabilitation program in the United States. In 1986 the City of Walnut Creek ended operations and the museum became an independently operated not-for-profit organization. The next year "Junior" was dropped from the title, making it The Lindsay Museum. In 1993 the museum moved to a newly built museum near the old pump house. Three years later the name was changed to Lindsay Wildlife Museum. In recent years, the museum has added a number of major new exhibits. ''Wildlife Hospital Behind the Scenes'' lets visitors watch a live veterinary procedure at the hospital through a large, one-way window. At ''Raptors'' visitors can soar virtually over Mount Diablo and measure their armspan against raptors' wingspans. At ''Hive Alive!'' and ''Hive to Honey~Honey Bees and Beekeepers at Work'' visitors can watch thousands of live bees and their queen and learn what jobs different bees do. In fall 2013, the museum opened the new exhibit ''The Burrow'' where visitors can go "underground" to discover the world of wildlife beneath their feet. The museum changed its name to "Lindsay Wildlife Experience" in 2015.〔〔
