Dinosaurs Alive! at Adelaide Zoo. Extended until Sunday 5 February 2017!
Come and see them before they go extinct… again!
Back by popular demand, the dinosaurs will be roaring into the zoo. Dinosaurs Alive will give budding paleontologists the opportunity to walk alongside seven life-size and life-like roaring, snarling and moving animatronic dinosaurs.
It’s an event 65 million years in the making. From Boxing Day, Adelaide Zoo is travelling back in time to when dinosaurs roamed the earth. These school holidays, take a prehistoric journey into the Jurassic realm and meet the Zoo’s newest but most ancient residents.
Ever wanted to measure up to a T. Rex, come face-to-face with a Spinosauras or take a selfie with an Apatosaurus?
Learn about these fascinating and gigantic creatures and their similarities to some of your favourite zoo residents.
You will also find out about Adelaide Zoo’s work as a conservation charity saving their modern-day ancestors from going the way of the dinosaurs.
