Dinosaurs At The Detroit Zoo
Heads up!
There are spitting dinosaurs at the Detroit Zoo.
It's part of "Dinosauria," open now through Labor Day in Royal Oak.
The exhibit stars more than 30 life-like animatronic dinosaurs that roar, snarl and move. And spit.
Zoo boss Ron Kagan says "Sixty-five million years after the last dinosaur species became extinct, these prehistoric creatures still capture the imagination and wonder of adults and kids alike."
The dinosaurs are located along a 3 acre Dino Trail at the zoo.
Check out the "dino dig" and fossil sifting station while you're there.
Kids can also walk through a dinosaur rib cage and compare their footprints with those of an Iguanodon.
You exit through a fog-filled abandoned mine shaft to go "back to the future".
Dinosauria is open daily through Labor Day, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. (until 8 p.m. Wednesdays during July and August). Tickets are $4 with Zoo admission for visitors ages 2 and older and are available at main admissions, the Dinosauria ticket booth or online at www.detroitzoo.org.
