Visit a Frozen Land Where Dinosaurs Thrived Against All Odds
Embark on a trek through the lost world of the Alaskan Arctic in the new traveling exhibition, Ice Dinosaurs: The Lost World of the Alaskan Arctic. Journey through the seasons to uncover how newly discovered arctic dinosaurs created families, dug burrows and adapted to survive the harsh winter. This immersive experience is built around groundbreaking discoveries that challenge the traditional understanding of paleontology.
Dinosaurs just got a whole lot cooler – literally!
The Lost World of the Alaskan Arctic
Scientists have unearthed a brand-new species of dinos, including a giant, feathered raptor with a quirky twist: it sheds its feathers and regrows them throughout its life—a prehistoric creature with a built-in wardrobe refresh.
Even more intriguing, researchers have discovered that some dinosaurs were permanent residents of the arctic. These non-migratory dinosaurs lived year-round above the Arctic Circle, enduring harsh conditions that challenge our understanding of dinosaur physiology. Evidence suggests they were warm-blooded and endothermic, thriving in an environment with mild summers of constant sunlight and long, snowy winters marked by months of total darkness. Such resilience defies what we might expect of creatures historically compared to modern reptiles
Exhibit Features
Take a Walk on the Wild Side
The dinosaurs, fish, mammals, marsupials and other creatures in Ice Dinosaurs are newly discovered species native to the Alaskan Arctic. You’ll be transported via immersive environments to the Late Cretaceous period in Northern Alaska and imagine the habitats of the dinosaurs who lived there with 17 animatronic dinosaurs and over 40 creatures.
A Piece of History
The exhibition features numerous touchable fossils on loan from the University of Alaska’s Museum of the North. Large skull casts and complete skeletons are commissioned from trusted museum and science partner Research Casting International. Be among the first people in the world to see arctic dinosaurs in an exhibition environment and learn about new scientific discoveries.
Interactive & Immersive
Built around groundbreaking discoveries expanding the traditional understanding of dinosaur physiology, provinciality and migration, Ice Dinosaurs invites visitors to learn about the unique adaptations of polar dinosaurs while interacting with real fossils and museum-grade casts. Have fun and make memories as you play interactive games, crawl through dinosaur tunnels, practice your paleontology skills in a dig pit and take photos to share on social media. Explore the exciting and adventurous world of paleontology, learn about the unique tools and methods used for fieldwork, and test your skills.
