Walking with Dinosaurs, The Live Experience

walking with dinosaurs
My son is a dinosaur fanatic... no...  He's a dinosaur freak!  He's only 3 years old and can name and recognize dinosaurs that I can't even pronounce.  Sometimes I think he believes he really is a dinosaur.  I love it. 

A while back I was searching for YouTube videos of dinosaurs and came across videos of amazing animatronic dinosaurs being built and manipulated.  Zach was wide-eyed. 

In June, we are taking Zach to see Walking With Dinosaurs, The Live Experience.  I'm super excited to go to the show as well because the dinosaurs used in the show are the same ones we saw on YouTube.  Presented by The Creature Production Company and BBC Worldwide, Walking With Dinosaurs should hopefully not be a disappointment.

The show depicts the dinosaurs evolution spanning their entire 200 million year reign.  The history of the world is played out with almost cinematic realism, including scenes of the daily interactions between dinosaurs.  You will see how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators.
Kids are so wonderful.  They get you excited about things you never  used to think twice about. 

Pythons coming to a town near you

Due to global warming, pythons may start finding northern states as desirable habitats.

"Burmese pythons — an invasive species in south Florida — could find comfortable climatic conditions in roughly a third of the United States according to new 'climate maps' developed by the USGS," the agencies reported. "Although other factors such as type of food available and suitable shelter also play a role, Burmese pythons and other giant constrictor snakes have shown themselves to be highly adaptable to new environments."
