To Learn About Cattle
and Their History
by Alvin Benn
It’ll
never rival Walt Disney World, but Alabama’s MOOseum has its own loyal
fans who learn at the same time they’re having fun.
Located
near the state Capitol and just across the street from the state
Department of Archives and History, the facility is a special treat for
schoolchildren as well as kids of all ages.
Unlike
staid, dusty museums where visitors are told to keep their distance from
exhibits, the MOOseum—built by the Alabama Cattlemen’s Association—was
created as a hands-on learning experience.
