MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 2:53 PMWhile on vacation in Dallas my family and my aunt and uncle visited to Perot museum in downton Dallas. It had been working on a new exhibit called the World's Largest Dinosaurs, which had just been opened a few days before.
They also have a Then and Now floor which holds creatures befroe the Triassic to now. It was truly amazing! it had a Tylosaurus partial skeleton, a Quetzacoatlus skeleton, Troodon, T-Rex, Styractosaurus, Torosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Archelon, Deinonychus, and many more. It also had the model which was used to build the animatronic T-Rex in the first Jurassic Park movie. There is so much more than that, but I don't want to spoil everything. This is on the 4th floor
The World's Biggest Dinosaurs, talked about only one dinosaur, Mamenchisaurus. It didn't really have a skeleton of it, but they explained it's anatomy and it's life, from beginning to end, how much it ate in a day, and every hour (which was a lot, by the way), And it also had a gift shop, which I bought a t-shirt that has Mamenchisaurus. This is on the basement floor.
On level 1 there is the other gift shop, a restaurant, in which the pizza wasn't bad, and a 3D theater. On level 2, there is a robotics lab, an area that explains the human body. On level 3, a mineral exhibit, that had a massive geode which you could open and close, and an energy exhibit, and a model of a drill that is meant to drill to the center of the earth.
If you are ever in Dallas, I highly recommend visting the Perot museum.
