The Milwaukee Public Museum, one of the largest in the United States, is
a museum of natural history.  It was created in 1882 when the city of
Milwaukee accepted approximately 20,000 objects and specimens from the
Natural History Society of Wisconsin for the purpose of creating a
public museum.  Currently, the museum houses over 6 million specimens in
the fields of Anthropology, History, Zoology, Geology, Botany,
Education, and Photographic archives. In addition, the museum maintains
a research library of over 125,000 volumes and the Education Department
serves over 325,000 people a year.   Annual attendance is almost 1
million.
