Hatching the Past: Dinosaur Eggs, Nests, and Young

Hatching the Past: Dinosaur Eggs, Nests, and Young

January 27th, 2007 - April 29th, 2007

Recent discoveries of dinosaur eggs, nests, and even embryos have provided new evidence to unlock the mysteries of dinosaur reproductive behavior. Did dinosaurs care for their young? What was life like for baby dinosaurs? Are dinosaurs alive today? The answers may surprise you!! This hands-on exhibit features actual fossils of dinosaur eggs along with many educational tools that portray and illustrate life in those more than ancient times. Luis V. Rey created much of the artwork especially for this exhibition, and past venues for the show include museums at both Harvard and Yale universities.
