DinoLand U.S.A | Disney's Animal Kingdom

Описание: Disney's Animal Kingdom DinoLand U.S.A

DinoLand U.S.A is home to the Animals Kingdoms prehistoric life including dinosaurs, a few ice age mammals and related modern animals. The backstory of this land tells us that it started out as a small highway town where an amateur fossil-hunter in 1947 found some dinosaur bones. After getting ahold of his fellow scientist friends, they put together their money to purchase the site.

The theme of DinoLand continues this backstory where you will find scientists, volunteers, grad students and former gas station owners all living here trying to find answers about the dinosaurs that once roamed the Earth. The quiet fishing lodge in Diggs County became the first headquarters of the Dino Institute, renamed Restaurantosaurus would now serve as a mess hall, museum, school and living quarters.

The Dino Institute houses the Dinosaur ride, originally named Countdown to Extinction. This ride takes us on a turbulent journey through the Cretaceous period.

The Boneyard which is the primary dig site, this is where amateur fossil hunters uncovered the remains of a Tyrannosaurus Rex in 1947.

Walking the Cretaceous Trail we find dinosaur sculptures, character meet and greets as well as plant life that dates back to the Cretaceous..

Chester and Hester is a road side attraction housing two rides, TriceraTop Spin and the former Primeval Whirl. Here we will also find midway style games like Whac-A-Packycephalosaur, Fossil Fueler, Mammoth Marathon, Comet Crasher, Bronto-Score several photo opportunities as well as a fun house mirror.

DinoLand also houses a replica of Dino Sue, which Disney had assisted the Field Museum purchasing in an auction on October 4, 1997. Some of the preparation for Sue's remains would take place at a Fossil Preparation Lab that opened with the Animal Kingdom Park.

Two Habitats can be found in DinoLand U.S.A. The first houses American Crocodiles. The second is a shared exhibit housing Abdim's Storks and Asian Brown Tortoise.
