MISSION STATEMENT

The Museum of Osteology will provide quality educational opportunities and allow school groups and the public to explore the form and function of the skeletal system. We believe that conservation must begin through education and appreciation of the natural world.

The Museum of Osteology, currently being built in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, will serve as a public educational facility, focusing on the form and function of the skeletal system. This museum will house nearly 5000 skull and skeletal specimens representing over 2500 vertebrate species. Displays will include adaptation, locomotion, classification and diversity of the vertebrate kingdom with a strong concentration on the class Mammalia (mammals). The Museum of Osteology will be open to the public and will offer a variety of quality educational opportunities, such as guided museum tours and specialty programs for school groups, as well as serving as a source for research specimens. This museum will be the only one of its kind in the world.
