Calgary Zoo - Penguins and Prehistoric Section.

Calgary Zoo - Penguins and Prehistoric Section.
This visit was on a Thursday. The sun was hot and the crowd was not bad.
The Penguins were nice to see. Took a walk through the Prehistoric Park and it was the same as it has been for some time. I remember the statues from back in the day. There are some children friendly play areas and a theater. There is a treed area which gives you shade from the sun and you can sit and cool off on a bench. There are signs along the way explaining subjects. As you exit the section these is a T-Rex skull slide for the children. Went further into the zoo to locate Dinny the Dinosaur. A statue of a brontosaurus which was around in the early 90s when we took the kids on a Dinosaur tour of Alberta. Unfortunately Dinny was blocked off by a construction fence. Turns out Dinny will be getting a $200,000.00 makeover. Nice!
Built in 1935 by sculptor John Kanerva, Dinny is the last remaining statue from the Natural History Park, which was renamed the Calgary Zoo and Natural History Park in 1937
