The King, Tyrannosaurus Rex, is worth the visit. This educational tour discusses its 2-million-year reign in the late Cretaceous and provides insight into the most heated debate in paleontology — was T-Rex a pure hunter or a scavenger, as well?

Brachiosaurus is another exhibit with realistic fossils that is a must-see. The setup is lovely, mimicking the herbivore's natural habitat. It consists of faux carpet grass, artificial plants, well-sculpted eggs, and a few hatchlings and juveniles in robotic motion.
