One of the most prestigious natural history institutions in the world, the British Museum of Natural History was once referred to as simply the British Museum. It holds a more complete collection of vertebrate fossils than any museum on Earth, including the first articulated urvogel skeleton, BMNH 37001, recovered in 1861, and procured at the behest of Sir Richard Owen, in 1842.
