Oregon Zoo plans dinosaur exhibit
09:12 AM PDT on Sunday, April 27, 2008
PORTLAND, Ore. -- Dinosaurs are coming to the Oregon Zoo.
An outdoor exhibit from Texas is heading to Portland for display from the end of May until Labor Day.
There will be 25 animatronic dinosaurs in the exhibit, from the huge brachiosaurus (BRAK-ee-oh-sor-us) and the always popular Tyrannosaurus (tie-RAHN-ho-sor-us) rex, to a flying pteranodon (TEAR-an-oh-don).
The exhibit also features activity stations where parents and their children can learn what these giants ate, how they cared for their young, what their relationships to other animals were like and possible reasons they became extinct.
