Event Description
Compare skeletons, teeth, behaviours and lifestyles in this energetic battle between modern-day animals and dinosaurs.
Are you team ‘living’ or team ‘dead’? Would a rhino win a fight with a T. rex? Which was the weirdest animal ever?
Join us as TV biologist Prof Ben Garrod and Dr Jess French go head-to-head in a bid to claim their team as the winners of the animal kingdom.
This event is part of SIREN23 in Ulster University Belfast on Saturday 25 February.
