Horned dinosaurs would have been quite a sight to see.
Here we have the reconstructed skull of a brand new species.
Her original skull is in the display case beside it.
Spiclypeus Shipporum is the scientific name of this horned dinosaur. Her nickname is Judith, given because she was found in the Judith River Formation in Montana. That river was so named after a woman in Virginia- by the explorer William Clark, who was one of the leaders of the Lewis & Clark expedition across the American west.
Daspletosaurus, the predecessor to tyrannosaurus rex, looms overhead.
One last look at him for this visit.
I departed, taking one last look at the main entrance of the building.
