Have you seen dinosaurs in unexpected places? Like malls or stores? 
I may not like feathered dinosaurs and stumpy legged Spinosaurs, but I will keep those opinions to myself, I will not start a debate over it, I promise. 😇

Yes!Two years ago,in Madrid,I found some Schleich dinosaurs in a bakery.
Well,that may not be this surprising,they're Schleich,so that's what you'd expect from them  :))  :P

I have the perfect entry.  But I don't have any pics yet :(        there's a town west of were I live and a guy has these two dinosaur skeletons made of scrap metal.   They been in the town for well over a two decades and are starting to rust out. You can see them as you first enter the town.

Next time I pass through that town.  I will try to stop and get a picture of them

Blade-of-the-Moon

Wonder if it's a couple of Jim Gary's pieces ?

No, This guy made them himself. I don't know his name, I never met him, I don't know if he will be offended if I post a photo of his creations online.   There both in a Tail Dragging stance, and he made a guy waving his arms in the air as if he's being attacked.

Ah.  Well most artists that create pieces to be displayed in public are fine with the attention they get ( speaking from experience ), pictures are normally no problem as long as you aren't on their property ( check for signs stating private property, no trespassing, ect, ) . You should be good otherwise.

Finally got a picture of my local Dinosaurs


Blade-of-the-Moon

Reminds me of some of Jim Gary's work. :)

Yes.   It looks like a stick figure from the side, but it does have two arms and legs

And ribs and head.

There's a library close to where I live that has this on its premises:




Was passing by it and saw it for the first time a few weeks ago.

(Not my personal photos; I'm actually in another state at the moment).

Blade-of-the-Moon

That's actually pretty cool..I like the message it's helping get out there and how friendly he looks.

Tyto_Theropod

Weird Godzilla type creature painted on the wall of a tunnel at an animal park near where my parents live.

Nothing much, but there it is. You don't tend to see many dinosaurs just hanging around in my neck of the woods :(
UPDATE - Where've I been, my other hobbies, and how to navigate my Flickr:
