T.rex – Dinosaur hunting in the 21st Century

Pete Larson is one of the world’s most successful and sometimes controversial dinosaur hunters. Join Pete and palaeontologist Phil Manning to explore how dinosaurs are discovered, classified and sold in the global race to find the newest, biggest and best fossils.

Pete and his team were responsible for discovering ‘Sue’ -the most complete skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus Rex to have been found (so far.) With new species being found every year, what is the future for dinosaur hunting? Is it science, business or both? Are we getting closer to the time when cloning a dinosaur is possible or is Jurassic Park just a fantasy?

This event is suitable for age 8+
