Dinosaurs are back! Sightings of these prehistoric giants have been reported in the wetlands at Roger Williams Park Zoo. Have these ancient creatures taken up residence once more, or have they been lurking undetected for the past 65 million years? From April 6 through August 10, visitors are invited to journey back to the Jurassic era and embark on an unfor-gettable adventure in the Zoo’s latest exhibit, “Return of the Dinosaurs,” where they can step beyond the safety of the Zoo’s familiar paths and venture into uncharted, wild territory, where colossal brachiosaurs tower overhead, ve-lociraptors stalk through the brush, and a fearsome T. Rex awaits to greet the boldest explorers. Discover how scientific understanding of dinosaurs has evolved over time—from groundbreaking research in paleontology to their enduring legacy in popular culture. Whether you’re a lifelong dinosaur enthusiast or a curious adventurer, “Return of the Dinosaurs” offers an unforgettable, immersive experience for guests of all ages. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to come face-to-face with some of history’s most incredible creatures. Special Dinosaur Events: Sensory Mornings April 27 & July 6 • 8-9 am Special sensory-friendly mornings an hour before the trail opens to the public: designed for those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and sensory processing differences and their families. (Zoo will open at 9 am) Dinosaur Family Nights June 14 & August 9 • 5-9 pm Families can journey back in time and enjoy an evening at the Zoo.
