Internationally acclaimed interactive dinosaur exhibition. Installation of the new Dinosaur rEvolution exhibition brings together cutting-edge science, striking art, and full-sized animatronic creatures opens at Tullie in Carlisle this weekend.

exhibitions which bridge the gap between science and public engagement. The exhibition
has previously toured in New Zealand and Australia. The exhibition runs at Tullie from Saturday 28 June to Sunday 14 September. Gallery installation Technician Martin Peck.

'It's almost magical': how robotic pets are helping UK care home residents
Animatronic cats and dogs have helped staff at a Bedfordshire care home to avoid medicating some residents with dementia.
The cats, which purr and miaow, seemed more popular than the dogs, which bark along if spoken to. To complete the scene, a pair of plastic song birds twittered away as Sheila Brinkley, another resident, pursed her lips and whistled happily into their beaks.
The residents didn't appear to believe they were real animals, but neither did they consider them silly toys. While some ignored them, many instinctively engaged with their moving features, wagging tails and "bark back" and "vibrapurr" technologies.
An eight-month trial of similar pets in eight Cornish care homes last year found positive effects, although things didn't always end well for the pets. One was found with broken limbs (cause unknown), another was dropped in urine and a handful malfunctioned. And a quarter of residents didn’t interact with them at all.
The effect of the £100 animals on residents with dementia, especially when they are distressed, was "almost magical", said Lydia Endersby, Oak Manor’s activities coordinator. They have become another tool to help the care workers avoid medicating residents who are struggling.
