Welcome home to Raleigh’s newest residents.

Yesterday the Dueling Dinosaur fossils were moved into the state-of-the-art SECU DinoLab where, during the next few years, you can follow along on a journey of scientific discovery.

Opening in spring 2024. You’ll be able to walk through an active dinosaur research lab, see these iconic fossils up close and ask questions of our paleontologists as they unlock secrets of the Cretaceous.

Until then, check out this behind-the-scenes peek at what it takes to move 31,000 lbs of fossils.

See you in the spring!
