Who are you and what do you do?
George Fussey, Curator of Eton’s Natural History Museum.
What is your favourite part of the job?
Outreach in all its many aspects: a museum without people in it is just a collection.
What is your favourite piece of Eton (or Collections) trivia?
Our Kakapo is our most photogenic object and represents a species at the brink of extinction, the largest parrot in the world, the world’s only flightless parrot, and one of the longest lived birds on the planet.
