Your adventure starts with the awe-inspiring sight of a mighty Triceratops prorsus locked in mortal combat with the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex. Our iconic dueling dinosaur fossils are 67 million years old and were discovered by museum paleontologists in Montana. Before you head out into one of our many exhibitions, take a moment to reflect on their eternal struggle (and snap the perfect selfie).
