Exinct: A Way of Life

This fun, family-orientated gallery welcomes us into a world of weird and wonderful creatures which have lived on our planet over millions of years.

Walk over the footprints of dinosaurs, marvel at the size of giant sea reptiles and find out the stories of animals and birds that are now extinct, those that have been saved and those under threat.

A chance to see a great selection of fanastically preserved fossils and skeletons.
