What is Dinosaurs Live?

Dinosaurs Live is an annual installment of some amazing life size animatronic dinosaurs. You can see all kinds of amazing dinosaurs…like a 46 foot tall T-Rex! They move, roar, and provide a look into what life would have been like when they roamed the earth all those years ago.

Dinosaurs Live is a fun and educational adventure for the whole family. It’s set up throughout the nature trails at the Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary in McKinney, Texas. You won’t want to miss out on this fun exhibit. There’s even an outdoor fossil dig, how cool is that?!

No. Unfortunately since the event is on the nature trails it is not suitable for regular strollers, wheelchairs, and there are no pets allowed. The exhibits are all great for the whole family though so feel free to bring children of all ages and adults who love dinos as well!

Is there a lot of walking involved in the Dinosaurs Live exhibits?

There is a good bit of walking. The dinosaurs are spaced out along the nature trails throughout the sanctuary. If you have trouble walking or issues with mobility this event might not be for you. Small children will be able to enjoy the event in a stroller as long as it has bigger wheels which can accommodate the rougher terrain. Those with balance issues or at risk for falling might also wish to avoid this part of the event!
