Poop Exhibition -No UNCHI, No LIFE-

An Exhibition Where You Can Learn About "Poop"

At the "Poop Exhibition -No UNCHI, No LIFE-", visitors are invited to explore the often-overlooked world of animal excrement. This unique exhibition, held at Tokyo Dome City Gallery AaMo, features approximately 150 pieces of "real" poop. It is a meticulously reconstructed version of the special exhibition "Can’t Live Without Poop! -The Natural Mechanisms You Don’t Know-", which was previously held at the Museum Park Ibaraki Nature Museum in the summer of 2023. While the core concept remains the same, the Gallery AaMo exhibition offers a fresh perspective with updated specimen samples and materials.

The exhibition showcases a diverse collection of preserved animal droppings, providing a tangible and educational experience. Alongside the "real" poop, the exhibition features valuable materials, including stuffed animals, that help illustrate the diverse functions of poop and its crucial role in the natural world.

Official Ambassador: Yoshio Kojima

Adding a touch of humor and engagement, comedian Yoshio Kojima has been appointed as the official ambassador for the "Poop Exhibition -No UNCHI, No LIFE-". Kojima’s involvement extends beyond promotion, as he also provides the narration for the exhibition’s audio guide.
