The Discovery Center is an interactive educational exhibit that mixes fiction from the
movie
Jurassic Park
, such as using fossil DNA to bring dinosaurs to life, with various
skeletal remains and other paleontological displays. Cycle back after experiencing all
the rides or on a second day. Most folks can digest this exhibit in 10-15 minutes.
Don't skip the Discovery Center. On a hot summer day, it's a great place to
cool off. The best exhibit of all is the one where an animatronic raptor
hatches from an egg. Young children will delight in the hatching and are af-
forded an opportunity to name the baby dino.
