Welcome to the Dinosaur Discovery Museum
The Dinosaur Discovery Museum in Kenosha, Wisconsin is the only museum to
exclusively focus on the link between birds and meat-eating dinosaurs, one
of the most complete known fossil records. The Carthage
Institute of Paleontology is housed in the Museum, and it is dedicated to the preparation and conservation
of real dinosaur fossils.
