On the Kaulagarh Road, northwest of the city center is the Forest Research Institute. Established by the British in 1906, the institute is dedicated to the preservation of India's varied and much-threatened flora and fauna. Located in extensive grounds covered with myriad species of India's forest wealth, it is the biggest forest based product-training institute and the training school for all forest officers in India.
With the Mussorie ridge as its backdrop, the institute is home to six museums that are open to the public on weekdays. The museums have on display some of the best species of flora and fauna to be found in India. They also house wood samples, insects, furniture, and wildlife, even a few stuffed animals, along with a library and bookshop. It is one of the best institutes in the world on the science of forestry and covers almost all the aspects related to forests and wildlife in India.
