c) Extinction Cave

An immersive 4D theatre with animatronic dinosaurs that will provide visitors a glimpse of what caused the dinosaur to become extinct.

d) Dig Site

Here, visitors will explore topics like the geological timeline, the fossilisation process, how dinosaur bones are excavated, and the various processes / tools that palaeontologists use in a dig site. Visitors even get to check out a holographic animation of the fossilisation process!

e) Laboratory

Find out what happens after bones are being excavated; how scientists figure out what the dinosaurs look like just from a few bones, and how they prepare the fossils from the rocks. There is also a Megalania Holographic viewer, a huge collection of specimens and a rotoscope to explore the reconstruction of a Iguanodon.

f) Dinosaur Dreaming

See displays of 8 dinosaur specimens and multiple fossils, and appreciate the amount of commitment and effort that palaeontologists put in to excavate and prepare these fossils. Includes an updated reconstruction of Timimus, a tyrannosauroid discovered at Dinosaur Cove in 1994.
