You will find in this exhbition the biggest carnivore dinosaur that ever inhabited the planet along with the smallest, the earliest with the latest, Cretaceous birds that could not fly, dinosaurs that would learn to fly, and much more skeleton replicae - 9 life reconstructions -12 interactive stations -15 Giant illustrations -Hands on displays for the blind -multimedia -complete lightning equipment -25 backlight explanation panels all together creating a friendly educational envoirement into a mystic and unique athmosphere. Dinosaurios Argentinos Giants of Patagonia has the scientific support of the National University of Comahue, Patagonia Argentina, together with museums and institutions dedicated to the search, research, and outreach of the palaeontological patrimony.

A dinosaur outline printed on clear plastic allows mobile colored and patterned discs to seen as the dinosaur s skin color and texture. Long-necked dinosaurs (sauropods) kept their necks up with the help of a long tendon. Visitors can feel the complexity of controlling a long neck by operating this model neck. Models of low bushes and tall trees invite visitors to help the sauropod graze. Visitors put their heads through an opening in a Carnotaurus. Visitors ride on a tuxedoed Rebbachisaurus.
