With more than 120 years of dinosaur research and discovery, the museum continues to be a leader in this field. “Dinosaurs, and Tyrannosaurus rex in particular, are such an important and iconic part of the museum and have been throughout our history,” said Ellen Futter, president of the American Museum of Natural History. The exhibition includes reconstructions of several T. rex hatchlings and a four-year-old juvenile T. rex. T. rex: The Ultimate Predator is curated by Mark Norell, who joined the museum in 1989.
