This collection long ago outgrew the front window of a shoe store and now occupies half of a ranch home on the edge of town. Most of the animals were bagged and mounted by Bagley shoemaker Hank Haug from the 1940s through the 1970s. <br \/>\nEverything in this space is Mr. Haug&#8217;s creation. There is a notable unity to the collection and painted displays, from the selection of items and their preparation to the construction of exhibits and wording of labels. The museum is an all-encompassing work of untrained genius and Hank Haug&#8217;s collection is a real compendium of nature&#8217;s wonders of the northern prairie.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/place\/bagley-wildlife-museum\">Read more about Bagley Wildlife Museum on Atlas Obscura&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><small>Category: <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/category\/museums-and-collections\/hunting-and-taxidermy\">Hunting and Taxidermy<\/a><br \/>Location: <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/globe\/north-america\/united-states\/minnesota\/bagley\">Bagley<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/globe\/north-america\/united-states\/minnesota\">Minnesota<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/globe\/north-america\/united-states\">US<\/a><br \/>Edited by: <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/user\/MattB\">MattB<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/user\/Dylan\">Dylan<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/atlasobscura.com\/user\/Trevor\">Trevor<\/a><br \/><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bagley Wildlife Museum The Largest Little Museum in the Northwest The Bagley Wildlife Museum is a jam-packed ark of a place, an extravagant monument to nature&#8217;s fertility.
