SUE the T. rex Virtual Tour for Classrooms
About this event series
Thanks for a great year! SUE Virtual Tours will resume in the fall!
Take a closer look at SUE in these online events and brush up on little-known facts about the most complete adult Tyrannosaurus rex. Field Museum staff guide you from SUE’s life in the Cretaceous to the latest scientific research. Using a 3D virtual model scanned straight from SUE’s fossilized bones, they’ll point out key features that give hints about SUE’s past.
Trivia breaks give you the chance to test your dinosaur knowledge. Please, submit your questions using the Q&A feature of the Zoom Webinar or include them in your registration form. We'll answer your questions live during the tour.
This online event is free with a suggested $10 donation and is suitable for adults, families, and kids (recommended for ages 5 and older).
Please note that all Virtual Field Trips are live streamed from Chicago, IL in the Central Time Zone.

Virtual tours for the public
