Hi friends, we hope you're having a delightful day! Today we have a dino-riffic story straight from the Texas State Parks. Two giant brontosaurus statues there, named Rex and Bronto, respectively, were all ready for winter. But something was missing, they didn't have anything to protect them from the cold snow! Thankfully volunteers from all over stepped up, and knitted two massive scarves to keep the long long necks of Rex and Bronto warm all winter long. How wholesome is that?

Here at I Can Has Cheezburger we're pretty huge fans of dinosaurs, whether its 30 pre-historic dino memes or dinosaur memes to extinguish your boredom, there are so many Dino-stories and totally hilarious dinosaur memes to laugh at. Today we have an amazing Dinos-tory that will definitely put an end to all of your boredom, guaranteed. We hope you enjoy!

It all started with a call to action...

The Dinosaur Valley State Park, a park with the preserved footsteps of dinosaurs, has a special annual tradition where they cloak these awwdorable dinosaurs in warm winter scarves. This year, they put out a Facebook post, asking for help getting their favorite dinosaur statues some warm winter clothing.

The park asked volunteers to knit or crochet 10 inch scarf sections, which they would piece together for the dinosaurs.

Honestly, if we had to take a guess, we wouldn't be so sure that it would be possible to get these scarf pieces from just any volunteers. We for one would be nervous asking so many people to volunteer, weren't they worried that they wouldn't get enough pieces of knit material?

In response, tons of people lent a hand making beautiful knitted rectangles to form scarves for both dino necks.
