Carnegie Museum of Natural History: Part 2

The Carnegie Museum's dinosaur collection includes the world's largest collection of Jurassic dinosaurs.  The Dinosaurs in Their Time exhibition offers the third largest collection of mounted, displayed dinosaurs in the United States, behind the Smithsonian MNH and American MNH.  The Carnegie has a number of complete fossils considered prime specimens which researchers study to compare to their new finds.

Amy and a big prehistoric turtle head fossil, if we remember correctly.

Big boys and stego.

Another big turtle.  The star burst plates underneath are really beautiful.
