La Sculpture Dinosaure Normandy VR France
3 Rue du Général Leclerc, 14640 Villers-sur-Mer, France
Located between Villers and Houlgate, the Falaises des Vaches Noires constitute a paleontological site of great scientific renown.
Before laying these colossal structures, which will soon be decorated, the green space agents had to "return to the open air the concrete blocks buried under the soil, which serve as a support for the plant dinosaur structure"
12 meters long, 7 meters high, consists of an iron frame filled with 6 tons of earth, 9,000 plants, 7,000 green pyreths for the top of the body, 2,000 alternantheras or rubras for the underside

Among many discoveries, the fossils of a 10-meter-long pliosaur, an ichthyosaur, a marine "crocodile", but also ammonites, sea urchins and sponges have been unearthed.
In order to popularize this exceptional heritage, a giant green dinosaur has been installed in the heart of the city in the gardens opposite the Tourist Office.
It is set up in June, so that these plants grow sufficiently, by the green spaces department of the city, which withdraws it in November. His return and his installation give rise to a much-awaited party which announces the beginning of summer!
It should be noted that for some time now, the dinosaur dad has been accompanied by his little child dino.

A well-made structure that recalls the history of the city and its attractiveness for the paleontological activities that took place there and which still take place there.
The eye color is fun and adds a touch of realism.
