Zoo Tycoon: Dinosaur Digs is a 2002 expansion pack developed by Blue Fang Games and published by Microsoft Game Studios for the 2001 simulation video game Zoo Tycoon. Dinosaur Digs allows players to add dinosaurs into the game, introducing new challenges to contain and manage them in their zoo. Upon release, Dinosaur Digs received mixed to average reviews, with praise directed to the novelty and appeal of the game's premise, and criticism of the execution of dinosaurs into the game and the lack of changes to core gameplay mechanics. The dinosaur-themed features in Dinosaur Digs were similarly introduced in the Dino Danger Pack and Extinct Animals DLC for Zoo Tycoon 2.
