Multimedia: Take a Tour of the Center for PostNatural History

Editor’s Note: The audio slideshows below accompany a story by Jonathan Minard on the Center for PostNatural History, which catalogs man-made species, and the man behind it, artist Rich Pell. Each slideshow tells the story of a different genetically-modified species housed at the Center. You can watch them individually, but they’re even better in sequence.

To read Minard’s story, go here.
