The World’s Largest Dinosaurs
The Discovery Center of Idaho is thrilled to announce the arrival of a world-class traveling exhibition, The World’s Largest Dinosaurs, opening on Monday, October 7th, 2024. This exciting exhibition explores the amazing biology of a group of uniquely super-sized dinosaurs: the long-necked and long-tailed sauropods.
Through imaginative exhibits-including the exhibition centerpiece, a life-sized, detailed model of a 60-foot-long Mamenchisaurus– The World’s Largest Dinosaurs takes visitors beyond the bones and into the bodies of these titans, shedding light on how heart rate, respiration, metabolism, and reproduction are linked to size.
Organized by the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the exhibition draws on paleo-biological research that looks in part to living organism to make inferences about how these giants-some of which grew to be longer than 150 feet, or the length of four standard city buses-were able to thrive, as a group, for approximately 140 million years.
The World’s Largest Dinosaurs is organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York (amnh.org), in collaboration with Coolture Marketing, Bogota, Colombia.
