Bishop Museum of Science and Nature

The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature (formerly the South Florida Museum), located in Bradenton, Florida, is a natural history museum specializing in the history of Florida's gulf coast. It houses exhibits highlighting Florida's history from the prehistoric to the present. The Museum also features regularly changing exhibits in the East Gallery and in other small galleries throughout the first and second floors.

The Bishop includes the Planetarium and the Parker Manatee Rehabilitation Habitat, which housed Snooty, the oldest known manatee in the world at the time of his death. The Parker Manatee Rehabilitation Habitat is a founding member of the Manatee Rescue and Rehabilitation Partnership and has rehabilitated more than 40 manatees since 1998. The Planetarium, which was opened in the mid-1960s, has since been entirely remodeled and received a significant technical upgrade in 2020.
