The Little World

Few people these days ride Stegosauruses.

When I was young I frequently got to slide down the back of the Stegosaurus in Calgary zoo – an area of Western Canada famed for prehistoric wildlife. I never had the nerve to try to climb the Brontosaurus and the Tyrannosaurus Rex was kept behind a fence.

However, you could make free with the Triceratops and Stegosaurus, as long as you were careful to avoid the thagomisers at the end of the tail.

It is pleasing to see that modern kit makers can also pay tribute to these old beasts. And thank goodness they have finally gotten the colours right.
