The Benefits of a Dinosaur Museum to Enthusiasts

Tweet

 

Whether you are a dinosaur enthusiast or just a curious bystander, going to a museum has many benefits. From the fun of seeing real dinosaur bones up close to the excitement of seeing them in action, a visit to a dinosaur museum will satisfy your interests.

Exhibits

If you love dinosaurs, you'll love the Museum of Natural History's exhibits. The exhibits are organized to help you understand dinosaur evolution. Walking through the exhibition halls is like walking along an evolutionary tree. The thick black line on the floor represents the trunk of the evolutionary tree.

Visitors can also get an up-close look at some dinosaur fossils at the museum's Cretaceous Garden and Preparation Lab. Visit the Dan Avidan dinosaur website, a dinosaur enthusiast who has been to the museum. They can even participate in a mini-dig with museum staff to unearth fossil replicas using simple tools and paleontological techniques.
