Canadian Museum of Nature

What do the experts have to say?

I went to the Canadian Museum of Nature to talk with Dr. Jordan Mallon to find out.

I saw online that Tyrannosaurs are really fast runners.

They can run up to 45 kilometers an hour.

I've seen it, uh, in the museum back home.

So actually the holotype, like the, the specimen is on display right now at the Canadian Museum of Nature, but it, it has previously been at their offsite where they do an open house once a year, so you can see it.

It was repatriated like, I don't know, a decade ago or something into Canada from like Chicago, I wanna say.

But yeah, it's very cool to see, and every time I'm like, "Ee, there it is." So it's very cool.

Hey, life is long.

You can still go.

If you go to Ottawa sometime this year, if you go all the way to the east coast of Canada, they, the Canadian Museum of Nature has a big thing about the Devonian and like, like animals going onto land basically right now.

They have a big, uh, exhibit about that right now.

Where in your ward would you take a visitor?

When I think of that, you know what? I'm going to go with the Museum of Nature.

Okay.

So my main office is on Argyle Avenue, and I used to have a window that looked directly at the Museum of Nature.

I think it's probably the most beautiful building in the city.

It has that old school European architecture.
