Minéro en Safari

Temporary Exhibition

Discover Minéro en Safari, the exciting new temporary exhibition by Minéro – Musée de Thetford / KB3, running from January 17th to May 24th, 2026.

 The whole family can discover the surprising similarities between minerals and animals, as well as the unexpected connections that link them. Learn how some species use minerals to protect themselves, feed, or camouflage, observe fascinating exoskeletons and fossils, and explore stones with evocative names like Tiger’s Eye, along with minerals and animals that share strikingly similar colors and patterns, including the ruby-throated hummingbird.

 From surprising textures to luminous phenomena like fluorescence, every area of the exhibition invites both children and adults to observe, compare, and share their discoveries. An interactive experience that turns scientific exploration into a family adventure.

 This exhibition’s production and tour were made possible through the generous support of the Government of Canada, Parc Safari, and Boralex.
