Mammals of the Deep | The Wonderful World of Marine Mammals in the Mediterranean and in the Gulf of Eilat
Now at the Museum
This exhibition is a product of this special bond between humans and nature. Specimens that indicate a highly diverse presence of marine mammals in our region have been brought to the museum for the very first time. Marine mammals of the Mediterranean and of the Gulf of Eilat, which is, in fact, an extension of the Indian Ocean, include various species of cetaceans (whales and dolphins) and one species of seal. The telltale findings that testify to their presence have been collected by a very special group of people, members of IMMRAC, who devote their time and energy to the task of studying the world of marine mammals and assisting in the protection of their habitat.

Transportable | Faina Feigin Landau
A massive wave of immigration from the former Soviet Union and Ethiopia profoundly reshaped Israel's social landscape during the turbulent 1990s. In response to the country's housing crisis caused by the growing influx, temporary residential neighborhoods known as 'Caravan Sites' were established to accommodate the newly arrived immigrants. As many as 30,000 mobile homes were installed in various locations throughout Israel, including Haifa, and soon developed into immigrant communities. Those neighborhoods and the lives forged within them, through challenges and hardships, constitute an important chapter in the history of Israel and the city of Haifa.
