Known Issues
If you are Firefox user using a Zoom level above 100% and have the “Zoom text only” option enabled, the top-level navigation may be obscured by the “75 Total Adoptions” text. If this is the case, you can either reduce your zoom level until you can use the navigation, or scroll to the bottom of the page and use the navigation in the footer.
On mobile devices zooming above 200% may require some horizontal scrolling to see the full content. Specifically the site title, page headers and some of the exhibition images on the homepage and exhibition pages. We apologize for any inconvenience.
