The Carnivorous Dinosaurs Exhibit
On display until March 22, 2026
Get ready to step back in time and come face-to-face with some of the most fearsome predators in history! The Peterborough Museum & Archives is thrilled to present its latest feature exhibition: Carnivorous Dinosaurs, opening Saturday, October 11, 2025.
Developed by Research Casting International, this exciting exhibit brings prehistoric giants to life through life-sized skeletons, dramatic skull displays, and bilingual interpretive panels that dive into the world of theropods—meat-eating dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus rex, Allosaurus, Albertosaurus, and Deinonychus.
“Dinosaurs have universal appeal,” says Susan Neale, Director of the PMA. “This exhibit captures the imagination while sharing cutting-edge paleontological science in a fun, family-friendly way.”
