Naturalis Biodiversity Center is the first and only museum in the world to present a herd of five triceratopses. Experts from Naturalis worked on the unique discovery for more than eleven years. Eppo Bruins, minister of Education, Culture and Science, opened the exhibition Triceratops: the herd on Thursday, October 17. The exhibition can be seen in Leiden until Sunday, August 31, 2025. After that, the five dinosaurs will go on a world tour. Afterwards, the herd will be given a permanent place in the museum.
