Dinosaur Adventure Show with Field Paleontologists, Mike and Roberta Straka
Come join an exciting dinosaur adventure with field paleontologist Mike and Roberta Straka.
Finding a dinosaur may be accomplished by one person but, getting a dinosaur out of the ground is always a team effort. During the show, they will explore all the different skills that come together on a paleontological dig. Audience members will experience the thrill of digging up a real Triceratops dinosaur bone and then help construct a dinosaur on a large cut-out.
The show will feature the skull of Mr. Nixon, an eight-foot Triceratops skull discovered by the team in 1996, and examine the characteristics of this dinosaur. Audience participation, a touch of magic, and show and tell with rare fossils will round out this fun, educational and exciting adventure! As an added attraction, Mike and Roberta will set-up a mini-museum, showcasing photos and minerals from their summer digs in South Dakota! Appropriate for grades K-8.
