BOISE, Idaho — The Discovery Center of Idaho announced the arrival of The World’s Largest Dinosaurs, opening on October 7th, 2024. This exhibition explores the biology of a group of uniquely super-sized dinosaurs: the long-necked and long-tailed sauropods.
Organized by the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the exhibition draws on paleo-biological research that looks in part to living organisms to make inferences about how these giants—some of which grew to be longer than 150 feet, or the length of four standard city buses—were able to thrive, as a group, for approximately 140 million years.
“The Discovery Center is so excited to bring World's Largest Dinosaurs to the Treasure Valley! While most guests are already familiar with our resident Tyrannosaurus rex, Tinker, we can't wait to expand into the colossal realm of sauropods. Stomp on over to learn about these enormous herbivores!” said Erin Seymour, Discovery Center of Idaho’s Education Director. “Our hope is that visitors of all ages will leave with a better understanding of the lives of sauropods and the way scientists explore and draw conclusions about extinct animals.”
