Two environmental activists glued themselves to a dinosaur display at Berlin's Natural History Museum on October 30 to protest what they said was the German government's failure to properly address the threat of climate change.

The women used superglue to attach themselves to poles holding up the skeleton of a large four-legged dinosaur that lived tens of millions of years ago.

Activist Solvig Schinkoethe, who took part in the demonstration, said that as a mother of four she feared the consequences of the climate crisis.

The museum didn't immediately comment on the protest.

The activists were part of the group Uprising of the Last Generation, which has staged numerous demonstrations in recent months, including blocking streets and throwing mashed potatoes at a Claude Monet painting.
