If your inner boy or girl has always yearned for a little prehistoric magic, why not install this true-to-life model of aTriceratops in your backyard? With its slew of high-tech functions, such as the ability to identify onlookers, snarl at them, stomp its feet, and swivel its head, it’ll make for the ultimate centerpiece for your next Jurassic Park-themed party.

The skin of this hyper-realistic replica of the 67-million-year-old beast is created from a special blend of polyurethane foam and textured silicon, draped over a steel and aluminum frame. To reproduce the sounds that this herbivore might have emitted during its lifetime, 1000-watt speakers have been built in for the best effects, together with motion sensors and pneumatic and air activated cameras designed to sense movement in its surroundings. It’s an imposing 8 feet wide, 20 feet long, and 6 feet tall, which means you’ll need quite a large enclosure to house this animal – and pretty deep pockets, too, as the novelty sculpture will set you back $350,000.
