A rare opportunity to see real dinosaur eggs and babies!
CLOSED
Reed Gallery of Mammals, Level 2
The 190 million year old fossils provide invaluable information on the reproduction and growth of dinosaurs, and reveal in amazing detail the story of how an early dinosaur grew up, from a tiny egg to a 20-foot-long adult
As one of the most exciting finds in dinosaur palaeontology and the oldest dinosaur nests with embryos ever found, this ongoing project required five years of fieldwork and intricate lab work to uncover the eggs and embryos on view today.

I have a little boy that wants to be a palaeontologist does the ROM have more dinosaur fossils or just this one?
Yes, the ROM has a great gallery of Dinosaurs. It has specimens represent life during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, grouped within the themes: Life on Land, Life on Sea, and Life in the Air. You'll see all of your favourites, including Tyrannosaurus rex, Stegosaurus, and Triceratops.
Do you perhaps have a Spinosaurus in your dinosaur display? We are coming in August and it is my son's favourite.
Hi Melanie,
We actually do not have a complete Spinosaur on Display. However we do have many other wonderful Dinosaurs on display !
My little boy is crazy about spinosaurus. Do you perhaps have one in your exhibition?
Looking into prices times and rates. Coming from St. Catharines not a lot of money looking for ways to get there and costs. My daughter is only 8 yrs and is really interested in coming. My husband and I have a hard time getting time off together. Let me know txs
Hi Amanda,
The ROM is pleased to offer discounted admission to our permanent collection on Fridays between 4:30 PM - 8:30 PM. If you and your husband can get this time off together, it would be a great time to visit.
Hi I was wondering if you had any allosaurus? It's my favourite.
Do we need to pay extra fee for us to enter this section? If so, how much?
This section is included with general admission.
Is the African Dinosaur exhibition still open to the public?
Yes it is still on display in the Dinosaur Gallery on Level 2 of the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal.
Will the African Dinosaur exhibition still be open to the public in September 2014?
I am hoping to bring my son for both the Dinosaur eggs and Babies show as well any other Dinosaur gallery the ROM might have. Can I access both with the Cultural pass or do we require extra admission?
Is this exhibition suitable for a 4 yr old ? Are there hands on areas he would enjoy at the ROM ? Thanks - we are coming from out of town.
The display includes a fossilized embryo of dinosaurs and is found inside our Dinosaur Gallery which is a favourite for visitors of all ages. The Hands-on Galleries and Bat Cave have special hand-on activities designed especially for families. Also, take a look at our Digital Gallery Tours which have been created for families planning a visit to the ROM (or to view at home).
Hi, I'm looking to study to be palaeontologist and want to gain experience on the subject. Is there any suggestion you can give me on way to do so? And is there any way to speak to peleontologists?

Hi I am 9 years old and I would like to know if all dinosaurs had tails.
Hi, Manny -- the answer is yes, all dinosaurs have tails. This answer comes from Dr. Michael K. Brett-Surman, who just retired from being the Dinosaur Specialist at the Smithsonian in Washington, DC.

Hi, I'm a student with George Brown College that has the partnership program with the ROM. I was supposed to be presenting in American Sign Language on this exhibit. Unfortunately, because it has been taken down, this is no longer possible. I know that in the past a student in a similar situation was allowed to go into the basement and present on an article there (instead of in it's original gallery). Is this a possibility for me regarding the Massospondylus exhibit?
Hi Sair, Please contact accessibility@rom.on.ca with your question.
I have also witnessed a "nest" like that with +20 eggs==== gotta get back there to recover them I guess >>>>> at first I figured the place was just mud cracks but having seen the "nest" on the net- well, we have another find to add to the richness of the south african fossil veld
