This isn’t Jurassic Park. This is Independence, Missouri.
A Tyrannosaurus rex, once part of an exhibit at Worlds of Fun amusement park, now stands watch over an Independence neighborhood to the delight of its owners, nearby neighbors and children.
The owners, Marvin Horn and his wife, Danniyelle Finley, love dinosaurs and display the 10-foot tall T-Rex model in their front yard, off of North Frandsen Road. “We are moving and we decided we didn’t want to take them with us, so we decided to put them up for sale,” said Horn, referring to the T-Rex and a Velociraptor, which sold quickly and is now home in Eureka, Kansas. “No one has come up with the money yet, but I’ve had over 12,000 people look at it online,” added Horn, who is asking $1,000 for the T-Rex.
