Dinosaurs of Patagonia features sixteen life-sized skeletons from South America's Age of Dinosaurs including the world's biggest dinosaur - the famous titanosaur Patagotitan; the razor-sharp teeth of the giant carnivore Tyrannotitan; and one of the world's earliest dinosaurs Herrerasaurus.
“The Titanosaur [Patagotitan] is one of the most extraordinary finds in the history of palaeontology.” – Sir David Attenborough.
"Dinosaurs of Patagonia is the best travelling dinosaur exhibition to ever come out of the Southern Hemisphere" – Dr Scott Hocknull*:
Step into the desert of Patagonia and discover incredible new fossil finds. See how palaeontologists reconstruct the past, and journey back in time to explore dinosaur adaptations and environments.
Highlights include:
• a 35-metre-long cast of Patagotitan, the largest dinosaur ever found
• a cast of Tyrannotitan, one of the largest carnivores ever found.
• the skull of a Giganotosaurus, the dinosaur from Patagonia that killed the T-Rex in Jurassic World
• ten other precise casts, from tiny Manidens to ferocious Tyrannotitan, which preyed on Patagotitan
• 13 real fossils including the biggest fossilised bone ever found: a Patagotitan’s femur. This Femur and the Patagonian is part of a David Attenborough documentary. It's exactly the same fossil in the picture with David below.
*Dr Scott Hocknull is a vertebrate palaeontologist and Senior Curator in Geology at the Queensland Museum in Brisbane. He was the 2002 recipient of the Young Australian of the Year Award. He is the youngest Australian to date to hold a museum curatorship and has described and named 10 new species and four new genera.
