Title
Elephant Tip, second floor, south pavilion, main building circa 1894-1913
Description
Second Floor/South Pavilion. This hall illustrates a phase of Museum progress, the temporary disorder that precedes an ultimate change for the better. At present the hall contains a mixed assemblage of animals brought hither from other halls in process of re-arrangement; later it is hoped that it contain a series of groups of birds from various parts of the world.
