The Dinosaur Safari returns to the Bronx Zoo, bringing with it a ¼-mile-long, walk-through exhibit covering more than 2 acres of forest and featuring more than 60 life-sized, animatronic dinosaurs and pterosaurs that move and roar in an accurate depiction of what life looked like in prehistoric times.

This year, 11 brand-new dinosaurs and pterosaurs make their debut, from the 43-foot Giganotosaurus, to a pair of Sphaerotholus, to the famous apex predator Tyrannosaurus rex encountering a Triceratopsand Ankylosaurus.
