Program Description

Event Details

The 19th Century Battle to Find Fossils in the Wild West! 

 

Dive  into the thrilling and chaotic “Bone Wars” of the 1870s, when rival  paleontologists Othniel Marsh and Edward  Cope raced to  uncover the biggest and best preserved dinosaur fossils across the  American West. Their fierce competition led to the discovery of dozens  of new species, from Triceratops to Stegosaurus, and laid the  foundations of modern paleontology, even as their feud became one of  science’s most notorious rivalries.
