Alcohol House Jars

These jars in in our historic Alcohol House contain the contents of the stomachs of snakes that were collected for scientific study. The Alcohol House is home to more than 250,000 amphibian and reptile specimens from around the world and is named for the 70% ethanol alcohol that preserve them.
