The Brontosaurus is one of the most recognised of all the Dinosaurs and the sight of seeing our stunning prehistoric beast walking around, raising her beautiful long neck is a true wow-factor! Brontosaurus have the smallest brains of all the dinosaurs, so aren’t very intelligent. Our Rangers have yet to teach Emily a trick! However, she does have the biggest heart of them all, this is used to pump blood all the way up her long neck to her tiny brain.
Dinosaur Hatchery (5 walkthroughs,12pm – 2.10pm)
Welcome to The Hatchery, an adorable Baby Dinosaur Nursery! Meet (or just peek at!) adorable, sleepy Dinosaur hatchlings and learn how to care for Dinosaur Eggs at The Hatchery.

Don’t blink… Don’t breathe… and DEFINITELY don’t run! Hire a Raptor for a totally new Jurassic Dinosaur Experience! Ritchie the Raptor is mischievous, naughty and very fast on his feet! He has escaped his reins and is now prowling and growling around, ready to give a big toothy grin to anyone who dares approach!
Dinosaur Dig (11am – 3pm)
There are two T-Rex and two Sabre-Toothed Tiger fossils buried in the sand, and we need a group of budding palaeontologists to help us uncover them. Will you be able to discover them? The dinosaur dig will take a short break while the raptors are out hunting at 11.30 and 1pm.

Dilophosaurus (11.30am & 1pm)

Comedy Cavemen (3 shows 11.50am – 2pm)
This pair of nutty Neanderthals bring their caveman car, complete with stone age music and sound effects, ready to cause some cavemen chaos! Prepare to watch out for their “Ugs” and “Ahhs” as they prepare to pull prehistoric pranks and create mayhem.

Meg is a gentle giant from the Late Jurassic period, easily recognised by her iconic spiked tail and that incredible back-plate display.
