Moore Laboratory of Zoology is a museum of 65,000 vintage bird and mammal specimens. We’re a hidden gem tucked within a small liberal arts college in Northeast Los Angeles, and our mission is to understand the origins of Earth’s biodiversity and how species respond to environmental change.

Each semester, Oxy clubs, organizations, and departments come together to help students explore involvement opportunities, identify shared interests, and exhibit student support services. Join us at the iFair to network and get a better sense of what this semester has to offer.
Join Occidental College’s Moore Lab of Zoology and FEAST's Bruce Steele Garden celebrate the vibrant bird and plant diversity of our city.
We'll be gathering outside of the garden to spot migratory birds that visit our campus during the spring season. The FEAST (Food, Energy and Sustainability Team) members will be leading guided tours of the student-run urban garden where you can learn about their dynamic agricultural programming.
Alice Henriques Volz's presentation "Gender Disparities in Financial Assets" provides an overview of how the SCF is used to measure how ownership/ account balances for liquid accounts and retirement plans differ across men and women. All are welcome! Details below!
The spectacle of spring bird migration is on full display at Bear Divide, a narrow pass in the San Gabriel Mountains just outside of Los Angeles, and the Moore Lab is counting thousands of birds each spring morning as they pass over a low saddle in the mountains on their way north. With thousands of migrants funneling through a narrow divide, this is truly a unique biological phenomenon.
