Dinosaurs to roam on the banks of the River Clyde this autumn

Dinosaurs are set to roam on the banks of the River Clyde this autumn.

Jurassic Encounter will take place at the Cuningar Loop in Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire, between October 2-17.

The popular park will play host to a prehistoric playground, featuring more than 50 animatronic dinosaur scenes.

The larger-than-life characters will include an 18m tall T-Rex that breathes and sways its tail as it hunts for prey; an Iguanodon’s furious battle against a Deinonychus; Pterosaurs that screech as they soar through the trees; a 15m tall Brachiosaurus, guarding her eggs; and a 16m long Diplodocus, who cries out to passers-by.

Naz Kabir, spokesperson for Jurassic Encounter, said: “Dinosaurs have always captured the imagination of children and adults alike, and Jurassic Encounter will be a fantastic, interactive way to learn more about these fascinating creatures.

“We can’t wait to welcome our guests – and our prehistoric visitors – to parks up and down the UK this year.”
