Scientists in Action: Super Sauropods, Fantastic Fossils

Published 2024-02-23
Big beyond belief, sauropod dinosaurs are amongst the largest animals to have ever walked the planet, living over 200 million years ago. While today their fossilized bones remain massive, they are not nearly as strong as they were while in use during their dino-heyday. Over time, dinosaur bones become fragile and require lots of special care. This is where Museum scientists come in! Join us virtually behind-the-scenes of the Museum and visit with the scientists working to stabilize and study these fabulous fossils. Student questions will help guide this paleo-themed adventure.
