Calendar: Summer Evenings at the Park: Dino-mite!
At the Wild Animal Park
June 20–September 7, 2009
Special Park hours: 9 a.m.–8 p.m.
We've planned a Dino-mite summer at the Wild Animal Park. Dino Mountain will be open until dusk each day, and the Park’s extended summer hours program lets you stay on grounds until 8 p.m. Features include sunset and nighttime Journey into Africa tours aboard the African Express, unique summer entertainment, up-close animal encounters, outdoor dining, and shopping.
Shows
The Bubble Show in Tembo Stadium
3:30, 6, and 7 p.m.
This show truly bubbles over with energy and humor as a bubblologist pops in and demonstrates how large, numerous, and explosive bubbles can be. Guests will even be part of the entertainment, as the show pops up three times each evening.
What does
Sir Archibald Higginbottom III have in his crate?
The Magical Mystery Dino Show in Tembo Stadium
2 and 5 p.m.
Archibald Higginbottom III recently sold his thriving Ice Business in the North Pole and moved to San Diego to present his latest find, Milly, a real live dinosaur. Sir Archibald will demonstrate his famous elixir and introduce us to Milly.
Join our local Indiana Jones, The Digger, and search for bones at our fossil dig.
Activity
Dino Dig at Jameson Research Island
1–4 p.m.
What happened to dinos? Where did they go? Our local keeper of knowledge will be able to explain what may have happened to these magnificent creatures. Once you have identified the bones you've found, bring them to our historian for a place in history. Make sure to stick around and let our historian share his thoughts on what happened to dinos.
