PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — Jurassic Quest returns to the Peoria Civic Center in November to dazzle crowds with their photorealistic dinosaurs.
The event will be on Nov. 10 to 12 and feature dozens of life-like animatronic dinosaur models, some of the largest rideable dinosaurs in North America, live dinosaur shows, interactive science with real fossils like T-Rex teeth, a triceratops horn and life-size skull. There is also a fossil dig and a “Triceratots” soft play area for kids, bounce houses and more.
In addition to “The Quest,” a self-guided scavenger hunt style activity where budding paleontologists can become Jr. Dinosaur Trainers, Jurassic Quest has launched a new video tour that’s already getting “roaring good” reviews from families. All expanded activities are included with general admission.
The animals are depicted in scenes possibly indicative of how they lived millions of years ago. Some move. Some roar. The exhibits works with paleontologists to make sure the models are up to the latest science.
