Untamed Souls
From the ghost-like gaze of the high peaks to the rhythmic pulse of the plains, wildlife is the living art of our planet. Across every continent and habitat, wildlife has evolved in remarkable response to the environments it inhabits. Untamed Souls follows this extraordinary diversity, from powerful predators and vast migrating herds to elusive forest dwellers and the smallest lives hidden within the landscape. Through moments of movement, behaviour and quiet observation, the collection reveals the character of animals in their natural worlds and the intricate relationships that connect species, habitat and survival.

Australiana Series
OUTBACK AND THE BUSH
Australia’s wildlife has been shaped by isolation, an ancient landscape and some of the most demanding environments on Earth. Across arid plains, eucalypt forests, wetlands and waterways, remarkable species have adapted to cycles of heat, drought, fire and seasonal abundance. From familiar inhabitants of the open bush to elusive animals concealed within forest, water and scrub, the Australiana Series presents the extraordinary diversity and distinctive character of wildlife found across the continent.
Home & Field
DOGS, CATS AND FARM ANIMALS
For thousands of years, animals have lived and worked alongside people, shaping agriculture, settlement and everyday life. From livestock developed for life on the land to dogs, cats and smaller companions welcomed into the home, each carries a history influenced by purpose, environment and selective breeding. Home & Field reflects the remarkable diversity of domesticated animals and the enduring relationships that have developed between people and the species that share their farms, homes and communities.

THE EXHIBITIONS BELOW ARE OPENING SOON
Marine & Aquatic
OCEANS AND UNDERWATER
Beneath the water lies a vast network of habitats. Coral reefs, open oceans, coastal waters and the deep sea are home to species adapted to very different conditions. Marine & Aquatic reveals this remarkable diversity and explores behaviours that make life underwater possible.
Benea
Masters of the Sky
BIRDS AND FLIGHT
Birds have evolved with an extraordinary range of forms for life above the ground, from powerful wings built for soaring and pursuit to the delicate precision required for hovering and agile flight. Masters of the Sky celebrates the remarkable adaptations and behaviours of those command the air.
Forest, Woodland & Mountains
CATS, BEARS, STAG AND WOLVES
From forest floors to mountain slopes, these environments support wildlife with wonderous adaption. Large mammals move through woodland clearings and rugged high country, while smaller species occupy the dense understorey, tree canopy and rocky margins. These works follows the varied lives found across these connected habitats.
Rivers & Wetlands
MARSHES & RIVERBANKS
Freshwater environments of rivers, marshes, lakes and reed-fringed wetlands provide feeding grounds, shelter and breeding sites for an extraordinary range of wildlife. Mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians move between water and land, each adapted to the shifting conditions of these productive ecosystems. Rivers & Wetlands examines these waterways, revealing the wide ecological diversity.
Frozen Wild
TUNDRA, ICE & SNOW
Life at the world’s coldest latitudes demands exceptional resilience. Across tundra, snowbound forests, sea ice and frozen coastlines, animals survive through dense insulation, seasonal movement, specialised hunting strategies and remarkable conservation of energy. Frozen Wild examines these adaptations and the behaviours that allow wildlife to persist in environments shaped by snow, ice, scarcity and extreme cold.
Open Plains
GRASSLANDS, SAVANNAH AND SCRUB
Across grasslands, savannahs and open scrub, survival is closely tied to movement, visibility and the changing availability of food and water. Vast herds follow seasonal resources across the landscape, while predators and large herbivores occupy territories stretching far beyond the horizon. Open Plains examines a world defined by mobility, competition and the continual search for resources.
Jungle & Rainforest
MONKEYS, APES AND TREE DWELLERS
Tropical rainforests contain some of the richest concentrations of life on Earth, distributed through the shaded forest floor to the upper canopy. Primates and other tree-dwelling animals have developed specialised ways of feeding, moving and communicating within this complex environment. Jungle & Rainforest explores this world, revealing how life unfolds within one of the planet’s most biologically diverse ecosystems.
The Micro-Wild
INSECTS AND INVERTEBRATES
At the smallest scales, the natural world reveals an extraordinary complexity of structure, colour and adaptation. These creatures reflect millions of years of evolution. The Micro-Wild brings these often-overlooked lives into focus, revealing the remarkable detail, diversity and ecological importance of the tiny creatures that inhabit the world around us.
