EXHIBITION CLOSED SEPTEMBER 2012
Dinosaurs: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries‘ amazing bio-mechanical models and lush dioramas gave visitors the thrill of discovering something brand-new about a creature that lived millions of years ago. Ever since the first dinosaur fossil was identified almost 200 years ago, people have wondered how these fascinating animals lived, moved and behaved. At first, dinosaur hunters used only such tools as a keen eye, shovel and compass. Today, scientists also rely on everything from satellite technology to scanning electron microscopes.
