Natural History Museum Dinosaur Encounter

January 2, 2013 — Leave a comment

Watch as dinosaurs come to life at the Natural History Museum‘s Dinosaur Encounter! Their realistic T. rex and Triceratops large-scale puppets capture the imaginations of audiences in performances throughout each week. Thanks to the expertise of NHM’s paleontologists and puppeteers, you can experience how these prehistoric animals lived. Their team of performance artists will guide you back in time to better understand dinosaur anatomy, possible behavior, and movement.
