Opening April 17, 2021!

Emerson Dinoroarus, a dynamic temporary exhibit at the Saint Louis Zoo, opens to the public on Saturday, April 17, and runs through October 31, 2021.

Dinos & More

This engaging attraction for all ages features 16 different groupings of animatronic and stationary dinosaurs — colorful, prehistoric creatures that move realistically, some roaring and spitting or placidly munching on the lush vegetation.

The dinosaurs and other ancient species representing a vast span of geological time include:

• Life-size triceratops (tri-SERR-uh-tops)

• 12-foot-tall Tyrannosaurus rex (tie-RAN-oh-SORE-us REX)

• Giant stork-like quetzalcoatlus (ket-zel-KWAT-lus)

• 18-foot-tall brachiosaurus (brack-ee-oh-SORE-us)

• Nest of duck-billed parasaurolophus babies (PAR-ah-saw-RAH-lo-fuss)

• And many more!

Plus, observe a staged fossil dig site and learn all about fossils.
