I have many shows and lectures to offer you and your organization. All, except
"Cap'n Dave's Fossil Show" will require you to provide a computer and a projector
capable of using Power Point. If you don't see one that you like then please let me
know. I can develop new shows to meet your needs.
See the bottom of this page for an exciting new extra you can ask for!!!
"What Jurassic Park Got Wrong"
Ages: All ages (although best for 8 on up)
Time: 30-120 min, depending on your needs.
This is my most requested show. I discuss the science behind the
dinosaurs in the popular movie series and show you what the
producers changed and got wrong with the animals. A great show for
all audiences.
"T. Rex: Predator or Scavenger?"
Ages: 8 on up
Time: 30- 45 min
This is my most serious and scientific show. I explore the theory (of
only one paleontologist) that the most famous dinosaur of all time
was a 10-ton walking vulture rather than an active hunter. A great
show for true dino nuts.
"Dinosaurs on the Big Screen"
Ages: 8 on up
Time: About 45 minutes
Dinosaurs have been a favorite topic of movies almost since the
invention of the motion picture camera. In this lecture I show a
history of dinosaurs in Hollywood and how these images have
effected our perception of these prehistoric beasts.
"Cap'n Dave's Fossil Show"
Ages: All Ages
Time: About 30 - 90 minutes depending on your needs
This show was designed for places and organizations that don't
have projectors and computers. I use my extensive collection of
fossils along with hand-held photos to educate and entertain the
audience. This show is perfect for schools, small libraries and small
museums who don't have formal presentation systems. To date
over 3500 people in Utah and Nevada have enjoyed this show. (If
your facility does have a projector system and you'd still like this
show don't worry. I can do a multimedia version as well.)
"Dinosaurs of the Southwest"
Ages: All Ages
Time: 30 - 120 minutes, depending on your needs.
Specifically developed for schools, museums and libraries in my
neck of the woods, I step through the major types of dinosaurs found
in the SW USA.
A special version of this show called "Dinosaurs of Las Vegas" is
also available. In this special show I focus on the prehistoric life
found in and around the Las Vegas Valley.
"Ice Age Critters"
Ages: All Ages
Time: 30- 60 minutes depending on your needs
Las Vegas is known for Slot Machines, Showgirls, Neon Lights and
Elvis, but did you know that it is also known for its Ice-Age fossils?
In this presentation I discuss many of the major Ice Age animals
from North America and Eurasia. We had these critters throughout
the USA so if you'd like to know about the 13-foot tall elephant that
used to live in your back yard just ask about this show.
"What is NOT a Dinosaur."
Ages: All Ages (In fact the parents often need this info more than
the kids do).
Time: About 45 minutes
A LOT of people mis-identify any and all prehistoric creatures as
dinosaurs. Many people will even call some modern animals
dinosaurs. Well they're wrong. Dinosaurs were a very specific type
of animal and in this show I go through the major important
prehistoric animals and discuss why they are NOT dinosaurs. A
famous singer makes a cameo appearance in this show!!
Cap'n Dave is also a Certified Volunteer Animal Handler for the Roos-N-More Zoo in Moapa, NV.

BRAND NEW!!!!
The good folks at Roos-N-More Zoo allow me to use some of their animals in my presentations. It costs a bit more, but a 6 foot partial albino gopher snake, a blue-tongued skink and a friendly parrot really add to the fun and learning!! Or I could bring my friend Pandora, a 7 foot long red-tailed boa (as long as she doesn't try to eat the other animals)!!!
