The Schiele Museum of Natural History is constructing the largest dinosaur exhibit in the Carolinas, with 4,200 square feet of real fossils, interactive learning experiences, and full-bodied cast specimens of T. rex, Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Apatosaurus, and MORE.
Exhibit highlights include:
- 14 full-bodied prehistoric skeleton casts
- An authentic dinosaur fossil that displays healed wounds from a T. rex attack
- Engaging and interactive displays
- Specimens unique to the Southeast, including Appalachiosaurus, the East Coast T. rex
- Opportunities to work with educational institutions across the Southeast to share the latest research and discoveries in paleontology (Appalachian State University, McWane Science Center, and University of New Orleans)
