Geocache Description:


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: This dinos name, meaning "roof lizard" or "covered lizard" in reference to its bony plates is a genus of armored stegosaurid dinosaur. They lived during the Late Jurassic period (Kimmeridgian to early Tithonian), some 155 to 150 million years ago in what is now western North America. Due to its distinctive tail spikes and plates, it is one of the most recognizable dinosaurs. A large, heavily built, herbivorous quadruped, it had a distinctive and unusual posture, with a heavily rounded back, short forelimbs, head held low to the ground and a stiffened tail held high in the air. Its array of plates and spikes has been the subject of much speculation. The spikes were most likely used for defense, while the plates have also been proposed as a defensive mechanism, as well as having display and thermoregulatory functions. It had a relatively low brain-to-body mass ratio. It had a short neck and small head, meaning it most likely ate low-lying bushes and shrubs.

Congrats to ranger170 for the FTF!
