The Discovery is excited to unveil its newest resident: a 25-foot-long, 12-foot-tall Allosaurus—a fearsome carnivorous dinosaur that roamed the Earth 150 million years ago.
A distant cousin of the Tyrannosaurus rex, the Allosaurus wields dagger-like teeth, razor-sharp claws and powerful hind legs. Measuring in at approximately 25 feet in length, the meticulously constructed cast offers visitors a formidable glimpse into an ancient past.
In celebration of The Discovery’s newest fossilized friend, the museum will host “Dino Days” from June 24 through July 2, a roaring rendezvous full of dinosaur-themed programming. All activities are free for members and included with museum admission for nonmembers. To see everything happening during Dino Days, check out the museum’s calendar of events.
