Dinosaurs: Hollywood Style opens at Roger Williams Zoo in Providence, Rhode Island
Animatronic dinosaurs including the 42-foot long, 18 foot tall Spinosaurus, as well as a few old favorites including the massive T-Rex and the spitting Dilophosaurus return in the Zoo's popular touring exhibit.
This time, visitors get a first-ever look behind the scenes at everything from how the realistic animatronic dinosaurs move and roar to what makes up their convincingly scaly skin. They will also get to play "director" and operate a six-foot tall Dimetrodon robot on their own - all through September 4.
