Take a step back in time where the past meets the present at Dinosaur World! With over 200 life-size dinosaurs and 20 acres to explore, this is an experience for the whole family (Friendly dogs on leashes are welcome!) The newest display, The Doom of the Dinosaurs, tells the story of the last dinosaurs to roam Earth before the mass extinction event. Curated by Paleontologist extraordinaire John Hankla, this exhibit features Stan the T-rex and an authentic Edmontosaurus skeleton cast featured in the movie Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and much more. Be sure to check out their newest activities, the Dino Express Train where you can ride around one of the ponds in the park, and Jurassic Mini Golf - this unique experience offers the classic putting green amongst realistic dinosaur statues.
