   Back on SH83 at Duntroon is the Vanished World Centre, with small but interesting displays of 25-million-year-old fossils, including NZ’s shark-toothed dolphins and giant penguins. There’s also a selection of books on geology, history and talking lions. If you’re really into fossils and geology, pick up a copy of the Vanished World Fossil Trail map outlining 20 different locations around North Otago.
