The dinosaurs roar and move, some even walk around.

There are also adolescent dinos that walk around and play with guests. Guests can dig up fossils like a real paleontologist, ride on the back of a Huge 24ft TRex, or the spiky Carnotaurus, go into the inflatable mazes, ride slides, and visit the Dinosaur Petting zoo.
