Meet MÁXIMO the Titanosaur at the Field Museum!
November 13, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Come face-to-face with the largest dinosaur that ever lived.
Named Máximo, meaning “maximum” or “most” in Spanish, our titanosaur cast reaches 122 feet across Stanley Field Hall on our main floor and stands 28 feet tall at the head. Modeled from fossil bones excavated in Argentina, this touchable cast conveys the sheer size of the biggest animal ever to live (It’s longer than a blue whale!). Patagotitan weighed about 70 tons in life—that’s as much as 10 African elephants, like the two specimens on display next to Máximo.
The exhibition is presented in both English and Spanish. La exhibición está presentada en inglés y español.
