On the road travelling north from downtown Tecumseh you will come across a pair of sculptures that appear to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and a Raptorsaurus.
Although skeletal, they are not a skeleton in the normal sense, the unusual thing is that it looks like an enlarged verion of one of those plywood dinosaur kits that you can buy. One is about 15 feet and the other approx 7 feet tall, and while they stand on a steel foundation there is no plaque describing why it is here, or who sculpted the Dinos.
My guess they are as an attraction to mark and help find the entrance to the flea market, which is set back of the road.
As the Dinos are roadside, there is no entrance fee, and you can view anytime.
