The Museum is home to a large variety of
dinosaur fossil displays. Visitors are welcome
to touch and feel real dinosaur bones!

Preparing the bones!

The bones are usually in a cast when brought
in from the 'dig site'. The cast is opened and
the matrix removed. Pieces are then carefully
put back together and glued. After completion
it is covered with a preservative.
