Dinosaurs On The Move: An Animated Exhibition
Come face-to-face with life-sized dinosaurs and journey back to the Mesozoic Era through realistic movement, sounds, fossils and paleontological discoveries.
Do Not Feed the Dinosaurs!
This exhibition, produced in Mexico, brings the Mesozoic Era to life with up-close encounters of life-sized dinosaur replicas with ultra-realistic movements and sounds. Using fossil models and paleontological reconstructions, the exhibit will help visitors understand the role of paleontology, comparing and analyzing evidence that has led to new discoveries about the life and death of dinosaurs.
The Experience
With an in-depth look at life on Earth between 252 and 65 million years ago, Dinosaurs on the Move explores various Life Science and Earth and Space Science topics including evolution, taxonomy, dietary habits, the importance of fossil evidence, continental drift, meteor composition, and more!
