Dinosaurs at the Royal BC Museum

The Royal BC Museum has two dinosaur exhibits, one with the best TRex skeleton (Sue) and the other showing a few finds in the province of BC. Both are insightful and wonderful to behold. First some recognizable dinosaurs.

This is Sue, named after the fossil hunter who found it. Over 90% of it was found in mostly large pieces. There are several indications on the bones of past injuries that have healed and diseases it contracted. It also gives an excellent sense of scale that makes one marvel at the creatures of our distant past.

The Sue exhibit is here until the 7th of January.

The BC exhibit has "Buster" in the center. It is an iron lizard from the Sustut river. The room shows finds of the museum's staff of paleontologists. It also shows some of the joys and trials of the team in the field. This exhibit lasts until April 7th.
