==Fun Facts and Trivia==
* When the attraction first opened there were no barriers surrounding the fountain just outside of the attraction. Due to guests entering the fountain, Disney eventually added various barriers including planters <ref name= "parkology"> http://www.parkeology.com/2010/02/all-dried-up-parkeology-exclusive.html </ref>.
* When DINOSAUR first opened the Compsognathus would jump across the ride's track, however this effect has been turned off and the dinosaurs are now static <ref name= "martin"/>.
* In the attraction's queue guests can look up and see three pipes that are red, yellow and blue. Written on each of the pipes is the chemical compound that makes up ketchup (red), mustard (yellow) and mayonnaise (white). These pipes are a subtle reference to the fact that McDonalds originally sponsored the attraction <ref name= "magic"/>.
* The large turtle skeleton found in the attraction's gift shop was initially featured in the Dinosaur Jubilee attraction <ref name= "magic"/>.
*Imagineers initially wanted the large mirror that reflects guests to be an optical illusion where guests would see their ride vehicle and the Iguanadon that traveled back in time with them. When this effect didn't work, Imagineers instead installed the monitor that currently shows the Iguanadon roaming around the institute <ref name= "magic"/>.
===References to Countdown to Extinction===
* On a map of DinoLand USA found opposite [[The Boneyard Playground]], guests can see that the attraction is still referenced as Countdown to extinction <ref name= "magic"> http://www.insidethemagic.net/2014/10/d-tales-6-dinosaur-countdown-to-extinction-at-disneys-animal-kingdom-tributes-and-remnants/ </ref>.
*A wall near the boarding area in DINOSAUR reads, "SECTOR CTX-WDW-AK98". The wall references Countdown to Extinction as well as the year Animal Kingdom opened and Walt Disney World <ref name= "magic"/>.
