Proyecto Dino is the only dinosaur dig program in Argentina. At this paleontology center, located in the heart of the Argentine badlands, children aged 8 and up learn by doing. Dig for dinosaurs. Learn to clean fossils. Find out about one or more of the over 400 fossils - sauropods, theropods, ornithopods, pterosaurs, crocodiles, turtles, fish and dinosaur eggs - uncovered at Futalognko, as the center is formally known. Dig for a day. Spend the night and dig for two. Sign up for a multi-day tour and, in addition to digging for fossils at Lago Barreales Paleontology Center, tour nearby natural history museums and paleontology sites. But make no mistake; digging for dinosaurs is both work and fun.
