Founded in 1828 the museum houses around 67,000 specimens many of which are now extinct or endangered. My favorite is the skull of a Bottlenose Whale from 1860.
Great comic shop that stocks small press, and everything else you'd expect to find. The kids section starts at early ages and has something all the way up.
