The Natural History museum


 A few words and thoughts about the museum our team has studied.




"The Natural History Museum  is located on Cromwell Road, in London.

Access by car is not easy and so most people take the metro to visit it.
For disabled people  there is a step free entrance. (Exhibition Road)

The Museum opened  to the public 18 April 1881

Entrance is free except for some special events and exhibitions.
A virtual tour is available.

850 people work there.

Educational activities games are available.


Exhibits that impressed me Tyrannosausrus Rex

Mauritius dodos(birds) and the Blue whale (largest creature ever)
 
                                                                                            Freri K.




"One of the exhibits depicts the Diplodocus  skeleton
Diplodocus had a long neck that it would have  used to reach high and low vegetation and drink water
When  I saw the huge exhibit I  was very impressed, I couldn’t believe that such a huge animal ever existed. I feel stunned when I look at it. I thought how  great it would be  to watch it closely"

Another exhibit is the following:


T rex
A giant moving model of Trex as it was when it lived … You can hear it roar
It was one of the largest meat eating dinosaurs (skull length 1,5 m body 12 m)
I marvel the power of its huge jawbone and 15 cm long teeth!
It walked the Earth 67 million years ago and its impressive we know about it

Pterosaurus fight in the age of Dinosaurs
Fossils
 They flew with their wings. They walked on their fingers. Some were gigantic while other could fit in the palm of a hand.
When you see the exhibits of Pterosaurus  live you go back in time and you understand how these ancient creatures lived
"I feel curious about how they lived and I admire the way they used to fly"
