PrintThe dinosaurs are unveiled in the new National Museum of Natural History fossil halls. They had been shrouded in plastic for almost three years while work was done on the halls to rearrange the exhibits for better viewing, addition of new textual information, and integration with other displays. New attractions, including a model of a pterosaur, were also unveiled.
