\"jurassic<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’ve ever wondered what it’d be like to live through prehistoric times and roam with the dinosaurs, there’s an upcoming exhibit that’ll make that experience feel more real than ever before.<\/p>\n

Taking inspiration from the 2015 hit adventure film, Jurassic World<\/em>, the Field Museum<\/a> is creating an outdoor habitat of their own for lifelike dinosaurs. Judging by events in the film franchise, we hope it isn’t too<\/em> lifelike…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The museum teamed up with paleontologist Jack Horner, the same one who helped bring the Jurassic World<\/em> film to life, to bring accuracy and authenticity to the exhibit. Getting an up close and personal look at what these larger-than-life creatures would’ve been like will probably be one of the most intense experiences you’ll find at a Chicago museum. If the exhibit is anything like the film, which is the third highest-grossing film at the box office of all time, it’ll probably get plenty of attention.<\/p>\n

And of course, what would a dinosaur exhibit be without Sue? Visitors can gain all-new appreciation for this incredible creature, as well as the rest of the Field Museum’s fossil collection.<\/p>\n

As with many Field Museum exhibits, this one is perfect for the whole family to enjoy. It’s sure to be just as educational as it is entertaining. Jurassic World: The Exhibition opens on May 26 and runs through January 7, 2018, operating from 9am – 5pm.<\/p>\n
