All the taxidermy and bones freaked me out a little bit but lots of great merchandise and helpful staff. Great if you're into to this sort of niche interest.

The employees are so knowledgeable and helpful, especially Cameron (sp?) who knew so much about rocks and excited to share fun facts about rocks, which got me so excited about rocks that I bought a garnet!
