Provided is a fluorescence observation apparatus that enables efficient data acquisition by simplifying the positioning process of a small laboratory animal and that enables easy comparative examination of many images. The fluorescence observation apparatus includes a display unit configured to display a plurality of combined images arrayed in at least one direction, each of the combined images being generated by combining a bright-field image and a fluorescence image of a small laboratory animal; an outline-extracting unit configured to extract an outline of the small laboratory animal in the bright-field image included in each combined image; and an image-position adjusting unit configured to adjust the display positions of the combined images such that the outlines of the small laboratory animal extracted by the outline-extracting unit match each other in a direction orthogonal to the arrayed direction.
