Dinosaurs
When my kids were younger and into dinosaurs they probably would have loved going through this exhibit at the Field Museum in Chicago, but we lived hundreds of miles away and never went into the city. I'm glad they have a chance to visit the museum now!
I have since visited a few great museums with dinosaur exhibits, and still can't begin to identify them! So I'm not even going to try with most of these, but instead will just let you enjoy the photos!
This is "Gorgeous George". It is not a T. rex. It is a Daspletosaurus, a close relative of the T. Rex.
I wonder if those people feel threatened? 😂
If you recognize the window in the background it is because I used it's shadow as the cover image for this week's Shadow Contest
Giant ground sloth fossil skeleton
This long-necked, plant-eating dinosaur lived over 100 million years ago in what is now Patagonia, Argentina.
Named Máximo, this is a model (not an actual fossil) of the largest dinosaur that scientists have ever discovered.
This titanosaur cast reaches 122 feet across and stands 28 feet tall at the head.
Neanderthal are our closest ancient human relative.
I hope you enjoyed this walk through Stanley Field Hall at the Field Museum. Inside the museum, Stanley Field Hall iaccounts for a half an acre of floor space. This post only shows a small fraction of the displays.

Finally, their dream came true. It's never too late. Just seeing the fossils is amazing, let alone seeing a living one. Maximo's size is truly jaw-dropping.
Here in Cuba we have the National Natural Sciences Museum with a similar collection, but it has few of them. What a journey you had!
This is just so beautiful to behold
Oh a deep journey into the past 🥰
Actually humans had a lot of close relatives some we know others we still figuring out. Perhaps even elves might fit in somewhere in the distant past 😁
In my province, Pinar del Río, we also find a Natural Sciences museum with endemic and very beautiful species. My youngest nephew would love to visit that museum because he loves dinosaurs, haha.
Good photos.
It is incredible the size that reaches a Sloth in that prehistoric era.
The museums have many interesting things, I remember that when I was a child, the schools in which I studied used to make guided tours to take us in educational visits. They were interesting times.
Thinking about that brought me memories, I think that for children guided tours are a good experience, and it would be good to be able to do them.
Giant sloths lived 35 million years ago and weighed 4 tons! Roughly the size of an elephant. They roamed South America and some parts of North America,
Museums provide great opportunities for all of us to learn!
Wow great, i would also have loved to visit a Dinosaur exhibition as child. But even now i would consider visiting it.
Wow!! 😍🤩 @melinda010100 This is the Chicago museum from the entrance photo I liked—it looks super interesting, my dino-loving friend! You know, I’ve never been to a museum like this in Cuba 🇨🇺. I think there might be a small one in Pinar del Río, but nothing on this level. It must be amazing to explore, Meli! 🤩
Thanks for sharing! I can only imagine how awe-inspiring the T. rex (Daspletosaurus) and the other giants must be in person 🥶. Greetings, and have a beautiful Sunday!! ☺️🤗🙏🏻
that are so many dino fossil there. alot of things to admire, and to learn from. I mean, what would the life be if the asteroid didn't hit the eatrh and wipe them out? Maybe will be the small two legged prey that some of the big dino will easily catch.

a little bit scary.

The dinosaur theme continues to haunt our minds. My eldest daughter loved stories about dinosaurs as a child, but the youngest daughter is indifferent to them.
There is a small town of Kotelnich in our region, near which dinosaur bones are found every year.
It's about 150 km from my house.
The Kotelnich location has been approved as a paleontological monument of nature of federal rank. Moreover, it is included in the World Preliminary List of Geological Areas (GILGES), compiled by a special international working group under the auspices of UNESCO.
From 1992 to the present day, annual research work at the Kotelnichi location has been carried out by a team consisting of local personnel under the leadership of A. Y. Khlyupin, director of the Kotelnichi Paleontological Museum, which was opened in 1994. Russian and foreign organizations actively participated in these works: the Paleontological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Monash University (Melbourne, Australia), the University of Toronto and the Royal Ontario Museum (Toronto, Canada), the Senckenberg Museum of Natural History (Frankfurt am Main, Germany), and a number of other scientific organizations.
A paleontological museum was recently opened in Kirov, but I have not been to it.
Most of Wisconsin was under water when dinosaurs walked the earth, and no fossils have ever been found here. That is great that there have been discoveries so near you!

Awesome photos! I love seeing the dinosaur bones and extinct big mammals in museums. Clever how you used the window for the Shadow Hunters!
