Questions and Answers About Dinosaur Exhibits

How do museum experts build realistic dinosaur models?
Paleontologists study fossilized skeletons and skin impressions to map muscle attachments. Artists then craft durable steel skeletons covered in molded fiberglass or textured rubber skin.
What are real dinosaur fossils made of?
Over millions of years, minerals in groundwater slowly replace organic bone tissues cell by cell. The resulting fossil is actually solid stone that preserves the exact shape of ancient bones.
