Sea Monsters Unearthed
Sea Monsters Unearthed explores the period when Africa and South America—continents that once fit together like puzzle pieces—split apart and "sea monsters" like mosasaurs and plesiosaurs lurked in the newly formed waters of the South Atlantic Ocean. The exhibition showcases never-before-seen fossils from excavations sites in Angola that fill in a missing chapter in Earth's history.
The exhibition tells the story of these fossils and the people that unearthed them. Sea Monsters Unearthed showcases an international collaboration among scientists and reveals what fossils can tell us about our past and our possible future. The exhibition immerses visitors in an ancient ocean ecosystem that's both strange and surprisingly familiar.
Focusing on biodiversity, geology, and paleontology, Sea Monsters Unearthed explores the tools and work of fossil hunters and scientists. Don't miss your chance to bring these sea monsters to you!
