Walking with Dinosaurs: See a Life-Size T.rex & Other Extinct Creatures Up Close at this Arena Spectacular
Submitted by Stephanie Ogozalek on
When Walking with Dinosaurs first roared into NYC in 2009, there was nothing else like it around. But since then, animatronic dinosaur attractions have been popping up everywhere, from the Bronx Zoo's Dinosaur Safari to Secaucus, New Jersey's Field Station: Dinosaurs to Dutch Wonderland's recently-opened Exploration Island. So, with all of those other dinos vying for your kid's attention and your hard-earned dollars, does Walking with Dinosaurs still hold up?
Absolutely. In terms of sheer spectacle and scale, Walking with Dinosaurs is in a class by itself. Its extinct stars are life-size and incredibly lifelike—right down to blinking eyes and loud farts (my son loved that part). And unlike the creatures at the outdoor parks, these guys don't just move their heads and arms, they actually walk around—and eat, and snort and fight.
