Nature Tales - Rock Rapids Public Library, October 13th, 2026

Get ready for a prehistoric adventure as we travel back in time to the Ice Age and the Mesozoic Era! Step into the boots of a paleontologist to unearth the secrets of massive woolly mammoths, mighty Tyrannosaurs, and the incredible giants that once ruled the Earth.

What You'll Experience:

• Become a Fossil Detective: Inspect replica dinosaur teeth, and real plant fossils under magnifying lenses to uncover how these prehistoric beasts lived, hunted, and survived.

• The Ice Age vs. Dino World Challenge: Compare the massive scale of an Ice Age mammoth to the largest dinosaurs—test your footprint size against a life-sized T. rex track and feel the weight of prehistoric armor!

• Excavation Station: Try your hand at careful fossil extraction techniques.

Put your scientist hat on, grab your field log, and prepare to dig deep into history—this is one mammoth-sized library event you won't want to miss!
