Coming into the next area of the Fossil Gallery, we find a set of dinosaur reproductions we can walk among, set in a confrontation of predators and prey. The predators are outnumbered. The herbivores appear to be of the chasmosaurus irvinensis species.
Interesting but scary creatures.
ReplyDeleteThey are fascinating!
ReplyDeleteThe predators were in the minority but also very large! Have you seen the teeth that they have? It was a real massacre there! That "crown" a Chasmosaurus irvinensis has is also bone based, so hard enough to fight!
We were lucky not to be their contemporary...
ReplyDeleteRather ugly, not a pet !
ReplyDeleteI bet that children love those displays.
ReplyDelete@Nancy: indeed.
ReplyDelete@Ella: those horns too would be lethal.
@Italiafinlandia: we'd lose out.
@Gattina: oh, I don't know... Chasmosaurus looks rather photogenic. But can't be housetrained.
@John: children of all ages.
That one pair seems to be having a good laugh.
ReplyDeletePredators and prey? Sounds a bit like the current state of the US political system!
ReplyDeleteMuito realistas.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e boa semana.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great gallery. The T-rexes remind me of a video I once produced for our first grandson. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGlad they don't roam the earth today! :-)
ReplyDelete@Anvilcloud: so it seems.
ReplyDelete@David: it does.
@Francisco: thanks!
@Tom: very big.
@Magiceye: especially those teeth.
@Jan: kids seem to love this area.
@DJan: we'd be in trouble.
Those are very realistic and very scary looking. I bet kids love this section.
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't want to get in between these critters

These are brilliantly done displays and your photos are terrific! That's quite the set of teeth on that one!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful gallery.
ReplyDeleteSins, grandsons, and great-grands have almost all gone through a dinosaur phase... how fun it would be to tour a wonderful museum like this with someone at that perfect age! The awe and joy (on my part too) would be amazing!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy seeing dinosaur exhibitions, getting a glimpse into what they actually looked like is fascinating.
ReplyDeleteThe dudes with the big mouths seem to be taunting the dude with the big hat. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWow! That would be a fun experience William, I bet the kids love visiting here ✨
ReplyDeleteWhat a big animal, lovely images about it.
ReplyDeleteYou always take fabulous photos! They look like they're going to charge at you!
ReplyDeleteGreat beasties, I bet the visiting children love them:)
ReplyDeleteThese are really cute critters.
