Palaeonthology Museum - Moscow

Dear Friends
if you will be in Moscow, don't miss the occasion to visit the Palaeonthology Museum ( http://www.russianmuseums.info/M416 ) located near the underground station Tioply Stan. The Museum located in a modern designed red building strongly contrasted with the r white colour of the sorrounding nature. It presents, not in chronological order, Permian dinosaurs, Giurassic dinosaurs and Olocen speleo bears, mamonths and carnivors. In particular, I have to say that in many Palaeonthology museums I visited (London, Paris, Berlin, Milano), there are preserved sculls and parts of the bones of the Indricotherium a mammal preceding the mamonths and bigger than them. But, I was very surprised to see at the Museum of Moscow two impressive skelets of Indricotherium Transuralicus practically complete.
Any comment from your side is welcomed.
Salutations
Giancarlo
