10-year-old boy points out mistake in London's Natural History Museum display
London's Natural History Museum has been forced to change its new exhibition "Dino Snores" after a 10-year-old boy pointed out a labelling mistake.
Charlie Edwards was at the museum for a birthday sleepover when he noticed museum staff mistakenly used the silhouette of a Protoceratops, a sheep-sized herbivore, for an Oviraptor, a small carnivore with a parrot-like beak.
"We were walking around looking for dinosaur clues. So, I read this one sign that had an egg, but then it showed the full dinosaur side-by-side comparison to a human, and I saw that the shape of it was wrong. It was claimed to be an Oviraptor but it looked like an early dinosaur from the Triceratops family," he told the BBC.
