Gerald takes a bow
12 December 2007
Although nearly all of the Museum's collection will be moved to RAMM's new, purpose-built store, some items including Gerald the Giraffe will remain in the building while the redevelopment takes place.
In December specialist museum contractors Constantine undertook the tricky job of moving Gerald from his present display position. Using gantries and hoists the well-loved giraffe was carefully lowered and is now packed and stored safely in the Natural History gallery awaiting his exciting future.
To ensure that Gerald had the best of attention, specialist museum contractors with experience of moving giraffes, were engaged for the move.
