About Jurassic Encounters: Zoolab at Thinktank

Get up close and hands-on with exotic animals in Zoolab's dinosaur show Jurassic Encounters! Meet snakes, snails, spiders and explore what these modern day creatures have to do with our dinosaurs from the past. We're talking about Diplodocuses to T. Rexes as we explore what they ate, when they lived, what they were like, how big they were and what it is that's so special about them!

Come and find Zoolab in our Find Your Future area on Level 2. You can join for a full 45-minute dinosaur show, or drop in for a quicker experience. Everything's included in your entry ticket!
