You must go to Dyche Hall and see the KU museum of Natural History. There is this amazing diorama there in a large room. It begins on one side of the room and circles all the way around you. It begins to the left of the entrance with the South American rainforests. Animals of the rainforest in a natural setting. As you walk around the room the vegetation and animal life gradually change as if you were travelling north. The center of the room is the great plains of Kansas with mounted buffalo, prairie dogs, and meadow larks in a field of grass. The exhibit ends on the far side of the room with the arctic tundra. I've lived in Kansas quite a while and went to Lawrence for the first time as a boy. There is a movie by 'Disney' about Comanche the cavalry horse. I saw that horse there on display at Dyche Hall.
