The Elephant in the Sukkah
What happens when an ancient Talmudic riddle meets a 10-foot elephant? This Sukkot at the Biblical Museum of Natural History, a 2,000-year-old debate about whether you can use an elephant as the wall of a Sukkah, or place a Sukkah on its back, steps off the page and straight into real life!
And that’s not all – as you walk through the interactive halls, you’ll enter the ancient world of Israel’s wildlife – from species that have vanished from the region to those successfully reintroduced today. Visitors will also enjoy a world-class collection in the Hall of Shofars, an engaging look at the laws of Kashrut, and hands-on encounters with amazing exotic creatures in the live animal halls.
Discover where Torah and zoology meet – all in a fully air-conditioned experience for the whole family!
