EDUCATION PROGRAMS
Everyone is fascinated by dinosaurs and the extinction event that changed Earth’s history forever.
Join our staff to learn about ancient extinctions, iconic dinosaurs such as the t-rex, incredible adaptions that allowed animals to survive extinction events, biodiversity, human impacts on biodiversity, and so much more! The extinction program is directly linked to the Life Systems strand of the Ontario Science and Technology Curriculum and is adjusted to suit grades K- grade 12.
Special Note: We are a sanctuary for rescued reptiles and do not offer travelling animal shows.

Support Your Sanctuary
Canada’s Dinosaur Park is also a sanctuary for abandoned reptiles. Come to the sanctuary and see over 200 turtles, snakes, lizards, alligators, and crocodiles. Walk our Dinosaur Walking Trail!
This summer come see our new Croc-Walk with dozens of alligators and crocodiles… kids and adults alike love them!
Fund Raising
Canada’s Dinosaur Park is a registered charity and to survive they must be creative and raise funds during the winter months when they are not open to the public. In 2019 during March Break a fundraising dinosaur exhibit in Peterborough at the Morrow Building attracted large crowds. Over 30 dinosaurs were displayed and the event featured a dinosaur maze and an obstacle course for children. A food court offered a wide range of gourmet meals and treats. Face painting, archery, and an art contest added to the family fun. A smaller exhibit of dinosaurs was presented in Windsor Ontario at the Devonshire Mall at the end of March Break. The Indian River Reptile And Dinosaur Park leased the dinosaurs to the shopping centre and managed the event. It was a major attraction in Western Ontario for 10 days in March.
Since our facility no longer does traveling live animal shows, we need to be creative to raise funds. Any ideas you have for events that could use our dinosaur ambassadors please let us know.
