Moving a Museum Object Carefully

Museum exhibitions are often changing and objects need to be moved around. This yak is the biggest object held in the collection at Leeds Museums and Galleries and poses quite a challenge when it needs to be moved!

The freezer in the conservation department of Leeds Museums and Galleries was sized especially to be able to take this yak!
