"The World’s Largest Dinosaurs” invites you to explore the mind-bending biology and amazing anatomy of sauropods — the largest land animals to ever live. From eating and breathing to reproducing, size affects almost everything an animal does. Through imaginative and enthralling exhibits and displays, including a towering, life-sized model of a 60-foot-long Mamenchisaurus, you will go beyond the bones and into their bodies to discover the fascinating mechanics behind how these titans lived their lives on Earth millions of years ago. Exhibition content is presented in English with the option for a Spanish audio guide.

The World’s Largest Dinosaurs is organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York (amnh.org).
