Malta, Montana dino museum set for its debut

77-million-year-old Leonardo – the center’s biggest star – will be in Houston

This weekend, a new museum will open in this tiny north-central Montana farming community to showcase some of the world’s most remarkable dinosaurs. But the superstar, Leonardo, won’t be there for the grand opening.

Instead, the rare, mummified, 77-million-year-old duck-billed dinosaur – a brachylophosaurus – will be in Texas, where he’s expected to enthrall millions of visitors to the Houston Museum of Natural Science for the next year.

However, a life-size replica of Leonardo will be on hand at the grand opening of the Great Plains Dinosaur Museum http://www.montanadinosaurdigs.com/ , just across the parking lot from the Phillips County Museum.
