Tripping the light Jurassic

Eye to eye with a dinosaur sculpture at North Las Vegas' Aliante Nature Discovery Park, 2600 Nature Park Drive. Hint: When you visit, and you should,  don't wear open-toed shoes. In addition to dinosaurs, this place is home to, conservative estimate, a million geese, none of whom appear to be park-broken. Step carefully.
