CORNWALL’S #EdenProject will be taken over by rampaging beasts this summer (July 24-September 2) for the #Dinosaur Uproar season.
The prehistoric programme will feature five times as many dinosaurs as last year's Dinosaurs Unleashed.
The stars of the show at Eden include:
• The Tyrannosaurus Rex – Otherwise known as the Tyrant Lizard, the T. Rex lived 65 million years ago and had teeth up to nine inches long. These vicious dinosaurs could weigh more than seven tonnes but were still fearsome predators.
• The Australovenator – The carnivorous Australovenator – meaning Southern Hunter – is Australia's answer to the T. Rex. With long legs, arms, and tail, it was built for speed and hunting.
• The Titanosaur – These were some of the heaviest creatures ever to walk the earth, some of which might have weighed up to 90 tonnes. Titanosaurs were well-armoured and had spikes on their backs.
• The Meganeura – A species of giant insect related to modern dragonflies but with a wingspan of approximately 30”.
Chris Pritchard, Eden's production manager, said: ‘Last year we unleashed dinosaurs at the Eden Project and it was a roaring success. This year they're taking over! Everything about Dinosaurs Uproar will be bigger and better. We'll have five times more dinosaurs running amok around Eden and fascinating activities and exhibits for palaeontologists of all ages.’
