A new family attraction featuring more than 30 animatronic dinosaurs opens this weekend on eight hectares of woods and grass in northern New Jersey.
Field Station: Dinosaurs in Secaucus includes a base camp and four learning stations along a three-quarter-mile trail.
Its moving dinosaurs include a 27-metre Argentinosaurus that park operators say will be visible from the Empire State Building in Manhattan, which is about 16 kilometres away.
The dinosaur attraction was designed in partnership with the New Jersey State Museum.
