Event in Avignon :
A wild species still present in the Alps despite a past risk of extinction, the ibex also lived in the Vaucluse, as fossilized remains testify.
On display until autumn at the Requien Museum, the exhibition by Monaco's Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology, with its large photographs, provides an insight into this animal with large horns, both agile and fragile.
A bridge between past and present, where we also learn about scientific research.
A game booklet is available free of charge from the museum reception desk. Don't hesitate to ask for it.
