Did dinosaurs just pass through Virginia on their way elsewhere, taking only meals and leaving only footprints? Or did they live and die here? Are dinosaur fossils out there, somewhere in Virginia waiting to be discovered? Scientists at the Virginia Museum of Natural History think that there are dinosaurs out there, and their ongoing research and excavations reveal new information about Virginia dinosaurs all the time.
As you visit the exhibit Messages from the Mesozoic, experience the story of Virginia fossil discoveries and learn more about the “missing” Virginia dinosaurs. Learn about types of fossils, how fossils are formed and where they are found. Learn what a dinosaur is by comparing and examining different specimens. See examples of fossils found in Virginia and elsewhere. Become a Virginia fossil lover!
