“The Jurassic Quest herd of animatronic dinos – from the largest predators to playful baby dinos – are displayed in realistic scenes with some that move and roar, allowing guests to experience them as they were when they roamed Earth millions of years ago,” Jurassic Quest wrote in its news release.
Jurassic Quest works with paleontologists so that each dinosaur is replicated in detail, according to the news release.
