What was it like to be one of the largest crocodilians ever to roam the earth? How did a creature grow to be as big as a city bus?
What was life like in the Sahara 110 million years ago?

Dr. Paul Sereno and Project Exploration present The Science of SuperCroc—a hands-on exhibit experience that brings together Sarcosuchus and Suchomimus, two of the fiercest prehistoric predators for the first time in 110 million years. The Science of SuperCroc immerses visitors in the ancient world of the planet’s largest crocodile, and explores the science of how this creature got so large and how we know.
