Primeval Whirl in Animal Kingdom is a spinning, dinosaur themed, carnival-style roller coaster that is part of Dino-Rama, the area owned by Chester and Hester. This heart pumping ride features twists, turns and even spins you 360 degrees as you race past carnival themed dinosaur signs, a shower of crazy meteors and even a jigsaw maze of dino bones before blasting back into the present day. This roller coaster looks like one you would find in amusement parks in the 1940’s and 50’s.
