I finally had a little time to place this small series out as part of the come out and play contest 2012 - 2013.
I had this one planned for some time but after doing NightOwl74's Sesame Street series I had to use the 'question in a cache' idea!
The Jurassic Park series will require you to answer all six questions to get the coordinates to the bonus cache.
All cache containers blend in with their surroundings and are located on another Fredericton trail with is well groomed in the winter, and could be walked, biked, etc. in the summer.
Kid's (of all ages) and parents or caching buddy may have to use some team work to answer these questions, but most will be easily answer by any dino buff.
Make sure you remember which answers go with each cache, but the bonus will have an answer check so you are not sent on a wild goose chase.
The bonus will contain many treasures as well as three special dino eggs for the first three kids that find all 6 and the bonus.
All 6 traditional caches are in water tight containers so the log sheet are not in baggies and there is some room to trade, but please bring a writing stick.
Enjoy! Information: The dino's name means "tyrant lizard", and is a genus of coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur. It lived throughout what is now western North America, at the time an island continent termed Laramidia, with a much wider range than other tyrannosaurids. Fossils are found in a variety of rock formations dating to the Maastrichtian age of the upper Cretaceous Period, 67 to 65.5 million years ago. It was among the last non-avian dinosaurs to exist before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event. This dino was a bipedal carnivore with a massive skull balanced by a long, heavy tail. Relative to the large and powerful hind limbs, its forelimbs were small, though unusually powerful for their size, and bore two clawed digits. Although other theropods rivaled or exceeded it in size, it was the largest one of the largest known land predators, the most complete specimen measuring up to 12.3 m (40 ft) in length, up to 4 metres (13 ft) tall at the hips, and up to 6.8 metric tons (7.5 short tons) in weight. By far the largest carnivore in its environment, it may have been an apex predator, preying upon hadrosaurs and ceratopsians, although some experts have suggested it was primarily a scavenger. The debate over it as apex predator or scavenger is among the longest running in paleontology.
Congrats to ranger170 for the FTF!
