Prehistoric Predators

Fierce hunters and their nimble prey face off on an ancient rainforest trail featuring dinosaurs found around the world, including an intimidating Giganotosaurus. The path also features activity stations to unearth fossils and photo-opportunity spots. Identification posts geared to all ages explain the differences and similarities to present day predators and their prey. Tickets for this special exhibit are $3 in addition to general zoo admission, or $2.50 for members.
