Top Dino: The "Extreme Theropods"
-----------------------------------------
With more than 35 complete dinosaur skeletons and 800 fossils, the Royal Tyrrell Museum has one of the most impressive dinosaur collections in the world. The modern museum has glass-free displays that allow visitors to get up close and personal with the dinosaur models and skeletons. The "Extreme Theropods" exhibit is an attention-getter, displaying a group of some of the more ferocious meat-eating dinosaurs ready to pounce. Many of the dinosaurs on display were found in the nearby Dinosaur Provincial Park. The museum offers amateur paleontologists the chance to try a hands-on excavation tour. Self-guided walking trails into the badlands surrounding the museum are also available.
