NBC5: Smell Sue the T. Rex’s Breath at New Field Museum Exhibit

NBC5 has a segment on some new features in SUE exhibit at the Field Museum.  You can feel her skin, hear her rumble, even smell her breath… it’s a whole day in the life of a T-rex!

What did Sue the T. Rex’s breath smell like back in the day (i.e. the late Cretaceous Period)? In short, not great. The Field Museum’s multi-sensory portion of the new Sue exhibit lets visitors sniff what the famous dino’s breath might have smelled like, feel her “skin” and more. NBC 5’s Kye Martin reports.
