Museum of Natural Sciences/Musée de l'Institut Royal des Sciences Naturelles de Belgique Brussels

THE major attraction at the Museum of Natural Sciences is the superb collection of Iguanodons – dubbed the Iguanodons of Bernissart. Iguanodons belong to a group of dinosaurs known as ornithopods, which roamed the Earth from approximately 230 million years ago until the mass dinosaur extinction, which took place 65 million years ago. This exhibit is a display of 18 dinosaur skeletons found in the village of Bernissart in southern Belgium. What is really neat is that with this exhibit you get a series of animated dinosaurs that move and make sounds when a button is pushed.
