In an effort to bring in more guests to support the animals in their collections, many zoos around the country are seeking out extinct ones! Dinosaurs are a HUGE hit among kids (and adult kids like me) and perfectly illustrate that some of the best monsters imaginable were ones that really existed! These shots were taken at the Milwaukee Zoo’s “Adventure Dinosaur” and I loved how they incorporated realistic looking foliage to really give guests the full dino-effect! The prehistoric beasts also moved and made sounds!
The always awesome – Mold-a-Ramas!
Dilophosaurus spits poison (water) at guests!
As it so happens, I will be visiting the other Dave in New England next weekend. We will be visiting The Franklin Park Zoo in Massachusetts where they, too, are featuring animatronic dinosaurs. We’ll share those soon…
