Is there such a thing as a Bronxosaurus? The Dinosaur Safari is back at the Bronx Zoo for the first time since 2019! The immersive experience is a ¼ mile-long walk-through exhibit covering more than 2 acres of forest and featuring 52 life-sized animatronic dinosaurs and pterosaurs that move and roar in an accurate depiction of what life looked like in pre-historic times.

New this year is the 110-foot Argentinosaurus – one of the largest animals ever to walk the face of the Earth. Storied favorites like the 40 foot long Tyrannosaurus rex, a favorite species in popular culture that was the apex predator in its time; the lesser-known Omeisaurus, a herbivore that spans more than 60 feet head-to-tail and towers over the safari trail; and the new Quetzalcoatlus, the largest known pterosaur ever to live are all back and ready to roar.

At the ADA-accessible dig site, kids can dig up ancient fossils, compare them to moving dinosaurs, and hear from the dino guides about the important lessons fossils can tell us.
