Call My Bluffalo

Why was a trilobite scientifically named Han solo? Join our collection of friendly scientists for this light-hearted panel game.


What’s a thagomizer? It sounds more like a ray gun than the spike on the end of a dinosaur’s tail. Why was a trilobite scientifically named Han solo? Zoologists and palaeontologists have invented some genuinely ridiculous names for body parts and animal groups and species. Join our collection of friendly scientists for this light-hearted panel game. Which one of them is telling the truth, and who has invented their definition of the bizarre zoological words we’ve given them? Can you call their bluff-alo?

Part of Silly Season at the Grant Museum. The event is followed by a free drinks reception in a private view of the Museum. This event is free and there is no need to book.
