The goats, sheep, ponies, cows, pigs, alpacas, chickens, rabbits, chinchillas, and guinea pigs are going to be joined by dinosaurs for the week.

Dora the Dino is back, plus a new dinosaur - Dougie the Velociraptor. They will meet and greet visitors every day, and compete with one another. There will also be walkabouts with the newly born baby dinos.
