Summer excursions: A life-size dinosaur roams Durham woods

If you’re a fan of dinosaurs, there’s one roaming the woods in Durham that you must see this summer. You might see him peering through the branches along the heavily wooded greenway trail. He’s been there for more than fifty years and is an impressive 70 feet in length. He is part of the original “Dinosaur Trail” which opened in Durham in 1967. In this episode, WRAL’s Hidden History reporter Heather Leah fills us in on the history of this magnificent creature and tells us how we can visit him.
