The Michigan Wildlife Gallery has a large collection of native Great Lakes birds\, mammals\, reptiles\, and amphibians\, with taxidermy mounts\, habitat scenes\, and the largest mastodon trackway on display in the world. There are also displays about some of the environmental problems faced in this region today. The Anthropology Displays feature artifacts from human cultures around the world. The Geology Displays on the fourth floor offer a large selection of rocks\, minerals and gems. These displays are updated periodically.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ida: Darwinius masillae
DESCRIPTION:\"Ida\,\" a new exhibit in the Exhibit Museum's Rotunda\, displays a high-resolution cast of an extremely rare  fossil discovered in 1983 near Messel\, Germany\, but only recently made available for study. The fossil has  proven to be a “link” between the prosimian and simian (\"anthropoid\") primate lineages. It has \"advanced\"  front teeth (incisors and canines) and second toes like those of monkeys\, and is broadly representative of what  human primate ancestors may have looked like during the Eocene epoch 47 million years ago.     Ida (prounded \"eeda\") is named after after the daughter of Dr Jørn Hurum\, the Norwegian vertebrate  paleontologist who secured one section of the fossil from an anonymous owner\, and led the research. Ida was  about eight months old\, or the equivalent of a six-year-old human.     Publication of a paper on the discovery was accompanied by a book\, The Link: Uncovering Our Earliest  Ancestors by Colin Tudge\, and a documentary shown on the History Channel (US)\, BBC One (UK)\,and various  stations in Germany and Norway.     U-M paleontologist Philip Gingerich and U-M anthropologist B. Holly Smith were two members of the \"dream  team\" invited to study Ida. The exhibit will be on display through May 2010.

SUMMARY:Performance:Gaelic Storm
DESCRIPTION:Gaelic Storm is a high-powered Irish band for the rock era\, an energetic group of young people who take Irish music to a new level. The members of the group come from Ireland\, the U.S.\, and Canada. You may know them as the Irish band that played in the ship's steerage in the film \"Titanic.\" But the only people who really know the brash\, exuberant sound of Gaelic Storm are the ones who've experienced their dynamic stage shows\, with rousing\, upbeat vocals\, wildly energetic dance tunes\, haunting ballads\, and infectious madcap humor. Gaelic Storm continues to broaden the musical horizons of the Celtic music genre by creating compelling originals and fresh arrangements steeped in Irish traditional melody and acoustic instrumentation combined with their unique blend of world rhythms. Gaelic Storm's song \"Kiss Me I'm Irish\" was recently featured in a Hallmark greeting card advertising campaign.
