Peabody Museum of Natural History
Listed under Natural History Museums in Connecticut, United States.
Yale is certainly one of the oldest universities in America, but who knew it had dinosaurs? It’s true; they live in the Peabody Museum of Natural History. Home to not only the skeletons of these Jurassic creatures, but also of exhibits featuring other animals and humans, as well, the Peabody is an over-the-top example of the seriousness with which the university takes its reputation as an academic and cultural leader, as well as the wealth of its many affluent patrons.
