HOLDERNESS — Since the first dinosaur fossil was discovered, humans have been infatuated with the gigantic creatures that roamed the Earth over 66 million years ago. This summer, visitors to Squam Lakes Natural Science Center can see life-size dinosaurs similar to the way they were during pre-historic times at Dinosaurs Return which opens on July 1.
Squam Lakes Natural Science Center first brought dinosaurs to the live animal exhibit trail in 2019. The dinosaurs were so popular that a new group of dinosaurs has been brought back for Dinosaurs Return. The dinosaurs look, move and sound like the real thing. The featured dinosaurs are: Allosaurus — a bipedal carnivore with 6-inch long claws; Baryonyx — a fish-eating dinosaur; Diabloceratops — its name meaning ‘devil horned face’; Dimetrodon — a dinosaur with a spiny sail along its back. There is also a dinosaur that visitors can climb upon at the admissions area — Parasaurolophus.
