If you ever happen to be near the Jardin des Plantes, don't forget to have a look at the Gallery of Paleontology and Comparative Anatomy.
It is a wonderful museum, sometimes overlooked in favor of the more famous Grand Gallery of Evolution, though it is just as fascinating (if not more); especially if you have - like I do - a particular interest in Biology!
