That big T-Rex on the south side of I80 west of Lincoln was taken away today. Anyone know why?

Maybe the state acquired the right of way for future interstate work? I didn't see anything regarding the dinosaur being relocated on the museum's Facebook page, but they are having a T-Rex naming contest, so I'm assuming it was moved inside for whatever reason.

Replacing or taking down forever?

Not sure, but may be someone could call and ask them.

They are closed, doubt you'll get a response.

I didn't realize they went out of business.

I sent them an email a while back, asking what was up, but still haven't received a response...

Sad. I-80 won't be the same without it.

Not the T-Rex but I was use to seeing these 4 waving at an Elk Point SD exit on I-29. Noticed yesterday they were gone. I guess the Statuary moved to Sioux Falls.

T-Rex apparently has found a home at dinosaur Park in Rapid City SD

I'm in the Black Hills taking a few days off and saw that T-Rex is actually sitting on a trailer in the parking lot at Reptile Gardens.
