Three dinosaurs... two in little picket fences are next to the Clayton, New Mexico tourist center. My toddler thought they were fun! Free and worth a stop to stretch your legs.

Fun dinosaur statues to see if you're passing through.
[JB, 05/28/2016]The statues are intact and the people in the visitor center are quite helpful. Fun photo op for the kids. The map out front will direct you to the dinosaur tracks that can be viewed at Clayton Lake State Park.
