Open seasonally through 2027
Dinoroarus
Opening June 19, 2026
Colossal creatures and bumpy behemoths have returned to the Zoo! This engaging attraction for all ages features different groupings of animatronic and stationary dinosaurs — colorful, prehistoric creatures that move realistically, some roaring and spitting or placidly munching on the lush vegetation. Guests of all ages will learn about what scientists can gather from fossils, theories of the dinosaurs' mass extinction and ways we all can support wildlife today!
As you plan your Zoo adventures, visit Historic Hill — or should we say Prehistoric Hill — to meet some dino-mite friends at Dinoroarus!

Dinos and More
Experience dinosaurs representing a vast span of geological time. Here are just a few of 20 dinos you can see at Dinoroarus.

Brachiosaurus
The largest animatronic in Dinoroarus, standing 23 feet tall and weighing about 6,500 lbs.

Baryonyx and Dilophosaurus
Both feature water effects! The Baryonyx drools (a nod to its fish-catching lifestyle), while the Dilophosaurus can spit water at guests.
-
Deltadromeus
Featuring nine different movements, this dino’s delicate skeletal structure and long, slender hind limbs suggest it was an agile runner capable of swiftly outrunning larger, more dangerous predators.

Tyrannosaurus
This rangy relic stretches nearly 40 feet long with 12 animated movements, including independently moving eyes, arms, neck and tail.
