National Poo Museum opens doors on Isle of Wight

A museum dedicated to excrement, with examples from the animal and human world, has opened to the public.

The exhibition at the Isle of Wight Zoo features faeces from animals such as elks and lions as well as a human baby.

The National Poo Museum has been created by members of the artist collective Eccleston George.
...
Twenty illuminated resin spheres show off the different types of faeces with facts hidden behind toilet lids on the museum walls.
