Dino Doug – The Cowboy Who Kisses Dinosaurs
Attorney turned explorer bringing real paleontology, Nevada deep time, and evidence-based wonder to real people.
Dino Dash is live in the browser. The full Dino Doug app is coming soon.
Families can play the first Dino Dash web game now, while the Dino Doug S.E.L.F. Explorer app is being prepared for both iOS and Android in the near future.
Coming soon to phones
The planned mobile app expands the game with saved local explorer profiles, points, badges, missions, field journal activities, and more Nevada-inspired Dino Dash routes for Apple App Store and Google Play.
Real fossils, real landscapes, real curiosity.
Dino Doug is the cowboy who kisses dinosaurs: a former Las Vegas attorney, lifelong outdoorsman, and dinosaur lover who brings deep time down to earth for families, teachers, kids, and curious adults.
He is not a professional paleontologist. He is a field-based science communicator with a deep love of dinosaurs, evidence, wild places, and the stories written into rock. That honesty is part of the point: science belongs to everyone willing to ask better questions.
