The scandalous life of Mother Nature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Flora<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Plants have long been regarded as chaste beings. In myths, flowers are often symbols of purity and virginity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first part of the exhibition introduces visitors to the reproduction of plants, particularly flowering plants, through pollination. Pollination can take place by wind or water, or using insects or birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a win-win relationship: the flowers’ shapes, colours and smells attract the pollinator. The pollinator feeds on their nectar and pollen, covers itself in pollen and carries it to other flowers. Some species have developed an exclusive relationship, such as the Madagascar star and its sole pollinator, the Sphinx butterfly: the two species depend entirely on each other.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Fauna<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What about animals?
In some species, males and females do not look alike. Often, the male is larger and sometimes more “beautiful” (mane, large antlers, coloured feathers\u2026). But this is not always the case, as in the case of the argonaut, a mollusc, where the adult female is ten to fifteen times larger than the male.
Females may choose to mate with the best-looking, strongest or healthiest male. But they may also be interested in the one that brings food or escapes predators. Sometimes, the male will even attract the female with a courtship display or a gift: a special mention goes to the gardener bird, which builds a sort of bridal chamber out of twigs, a cradle, decorated with blue objects, to welcome the female.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In a particularly surprising hall, visitors can try their hand at reproducing the love song of an amphibian or the courtship ritual of a spider. There’s also a collection of penile bones and a red display case devoted to the animal kamasutra<\/em>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
