Join the dino hunt! It’s a morning of fossil hunting right here in Maryland where dinosaurs roamed 115 million years ago. This period in the Early Cretaceous is so long ago, that it was approximately 50 million years before Tyrannosaurus rex evolved. Dinosaur Park is also home to Astrodon Johnstoni, the Maryland State dinosaur, and the largest species found east of the Mississippi River.
Our day will start with a show-and-tell presentation about Dinosaur Park then you’ll be able to look for fossils in the fossil site area. We will have access to a back portion not open to the general public. All fossils found are retained by the park.
