Gilbert - Dinosaurs & Other Stuff

 

At the Triceratops exhibit there was also this replica skull with a sort of magnifier.

If you turned the magnifier the shadow behind the skull changed!

It showed how the skull of a Triceratops changed when growing up into an adult Triceratops.

Baby Triceratopses hatching.


One last glance at the herd.


Next we visited a room that was set up like a cabinet of curiosities.
It had lots of taxidermy.


The hive of bees or wasps, I think.

This was the 'horny wall'.

There was a room about animals in the ice age.


In the middle of the room there was a diorama with all kinds of animals that lived during the ice age.




The skeleton of a cave bear!

It was really cool, but we were getting a bit hungry, as we hadn't eaten since breakfast. So we went in search of food.

Next: food and other stuff
