SAINT LOUIS ZOO'S NEW ANIMATRONIC DINOSAUR EXHIBIT
Dinoroarus presented by The Boeing Company brings to life 16 giant animatronic dinosaurs that move, roar and even spit in this one-of-a-kind walk-through
outdoor exhibit.
At Dinoroarus, young paleontologists can unearth some Jurassic
treasures in a hands-on fossil dig. Visitors will also discover
connections between dinosaurs and live animals at the Zoo, how
dinosaurs have been depicted in pop culture and theories on their
extinction. And thrill seekers can also experience "Dino
Island 2" in a 3-D motion simulator.
Admission to Dinoroarus is $3 for non-members, and $1.50 for Zoo Friends members. Children under two are free. The motion simulator is $4 per person.
A $5 Dino Pass includes admission to the exhibit and the motion simulator.
