Prehistoric Forest

Discover Dinosaurs in the Wild

Ongoing

Take a stroll back in time and come face-to-face with nine dinosaurs on the banks of Mission Creek: five giant adults and four little juveniles! Meet a Tyrannosaurus rex, the formidably armored Stegosaurus, high-crested Parasaurolophus, and Triceratops and Euoplocephalus mamas with their young. These hand-crafted moving animatronics spark the imaginations of dinosaur-lovers of all ages.

Prehistoric Forest is included with Museum admission. Members are always free. This exhibit is not ADA accessible; visit our accessibility page for more information.

Please note that on September 13, this exhibit will be closed for a private event from 2:00 to 5:00 PM. On September 20, the dinosaurs will be muted from 4:00 to 6:00 PM for a poetry reading. We thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience.
