Hall of Paleontology
The science of paleontology explores the history of life on Earth. Paleontologists study the fossil remains of dinosaurs and other creatures, including their skeletons, shells, footprints, and even coprolite (fossil excrement!). The Museum's Hall of Paleontology contains more than 450 fossils and fossil replicas, providing a vivid glimpse into the incredible 3.5-billion-year story of life on Earth. From the humble trilobite to the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex, this exhibit hall will bring you face-to-face with the creatures that once ruled our planet!
