This temporary exhibition is now closed. To learn more about the dinosaurs of our region, visit Fossil Mysteries.
Cutting-edge, 21st century technology puts a new twist on new breed of dinosaurs that evolved in isolation in South America, Africa, and Madagascar in Ultimate Dinosaurs. Through the use of augmented reality (AR) technology, full-scale dinosaurs are transformed into flesh-covered, animated beasts. This same technology allows visitors to see how the continental drift altered the landscape of the ancient world, setting the stage for the evolution of these amazing creatures.
Feel the exciting and intimidating presence of these exotic creatures as you wander among 16 life-size dinosaur skeletons and as well as a variety of other intriguing dinosaur skulls and bones, all from numerous locations in the Southern Hemisphere. From the tiny Eoraptor to the massive Giganotosaurus (T. rex's bigger, badder cousin), Ultimate Dinosaurs is a fascinating display of prehistoric species you haven’t met before.
An additional charge applies to visit Ultimate Dinosaurs , and members receive a special discount. Learn more about admission rates.
