From now through Sept. 3, Bishop Museum’s newest traveling family exhibit explores the world of dinosaurs and the hunt for their fossils in the 19th and early 20th century with Expedition: Dinosaur from Stage Nine Exhibitions.
Visitors will meet a dozen life-sized and lifelike animatronic dinosaurs that growl, move, and, in one case, even spit. People will even be able to control the sound and movements of four of the gigantic beasts. We tried it! Click here to read our 11 tips for visiting this exhibit.
