During the visit, a scientific animator takes them on a journey of fascinating science and allows them to make surprisingly playful and didactic discoveries!

Plongez dans l'univers mystique de la forêt pluviale du Grand Ours à l'occasion de Great Bear Rainforest, une exposition photographique à l'Aquarium-Muséum Universitaire de Liège.

Expo photo nature à Liège

L'exposition Great Bear Rainforest vous transporte au cœur d'un écosystème fragile où la vie sauvage et les cultures ancestrales se rencontrent de manière spectaculaire.

Chaque photographie capturée par Ian McAllister, défenseur et photographe renommé, raconte une histoire de survie et de résilience.

En explorant cette galerie, vous découvrirez les défis écologiques urgents que cette région affronte : de l'impact dévastateur des élevages de saumon et du chalutage industriel en mer, à l'exploitation forestière qui menace des habitats cruciaux. 

Cette exposition vous invite également à agir. 

Un regard unique sur la nature et sa conservation.
