Summary
| Description |
English: In October, 1997, "Wally" the stegosaurus took up residency on the front lawn of Berkshire Museum. The fiberglass replica Stegosaurus was given to the museum by Carol and Tom McCann. He is approximately 22 feet long, 10 feet tall, 5 feet wide, and weighs 1,200 pounds.
Wally was the second Stegosaurus created from the mold made by the Louis Paul Jonas Studios of Hudson, New York, the studio of famed wildlife sculptor Louis Paul Jonas. The first Stegosaurus was part of the Sinclair Dinoland exhibition at the New York World's Fair in 1964 and 1965. Wally spent 30 years on the grounds of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History before coming to the Berkshire Museum in 1997 after a reconditioning by Jonas Studios. Contest winner Levi Bissell named him "Wally" because Stegosaurus had a brain the size of a walnut. After the 1964-1965 World's Fair closed, the dinosaurs went on tour across the United States and appeared in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1966. The original Stegosaurus is now on display at Dinosaur National Monument in Harper's Corner, Utah. |
