(Ashland, NE) -- Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium announces a new attraction at their Wildlife Safari Park
The zoo says that the Jurassic Adventure at Lee. G. Simmons Wildlife Safari Park in Ashland will include some of the world’s largest robotic dinosaurs. The dinosaurs will begin roaming the Park beginning May 5, 2023. The zoo says the dinosaurs coming to Ashland will be scattered throughout the Wildlife Safari Park to give an authentic dinosaur safari feel as guests enjoy their visit.
The exhibition is created by Dino Dan, Inc., the only maker of full-sized dinosaurs. The zoo says, " the handmade animatronics are uniquely created under direct scientific supervision and unlike other robots, these dinosaurs move and breathe." The company’s founder, “Dino” Don Lessem, is a world-renowned authority on dinosaurs and was the dinosaur advisor to Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park. “Dino” Don is also responsible for the excavating and reconstruction of skeletons for the largest meat-eating and plant-eating dinosaurs in the world from the deserts of Patagonia. “Dino” Don said, “We have gone to great lengths to ensure the most accurate dinosaur robots in the world and dinosaur fans love them.”
The Jurassic Adventure is included with admission to the Wildlife Safari Park.
