Meet Dolores: A New Aquilops Dinosaur at Jurassic Park Discovery Center

Introducing Dolores, the Aquilops

• 💡 Meet Dolores, a fully grown Aquilops dinosaur, currently weighing about 3 lbs and measuring 18 inches long.
• 🎯 She is described as being excellent at hiding among rocks due to her small size and low profile.

Dolores's Background and Acclimation

• 🚀 Dolores is a rescue dinosaur, born on an island called Uber, and has had no prior human interaction.
• ⚠️ This is her first experience with people, new sights, sounds, and smells, making it a new and exciting time for her.
• 🤝 She and her handler are both guests at the park, invited to meet people and get used to new environments.

Dinosaur Interaction and Care

• 💬 Dolores has been quite chatty and shy but is doing well meeting new people.
• 🐾 Visitors are invited to let Dolores sniff their hand, with instructions to go slow and ensure they have no food for her.
• 🍽️ She is on a regimented feeding routine and is only fed in the back to ensure proper nutrition.
• 📸 Dolores is getting used to cameras and can stay still for photos.

Dinosaur Encounters

• 🦖 It's uncertain how Dolores would interact with other dinosaurs like a T-Rex or raptor, so the focus is on her making new human friends.
