The scanners that let guests highlight fossils on the Discovering Dinosaurs rock wall are gone, and WDW News Today reports black scrim now covers the signs of the removal. Universal has not announced the change, and it lands while Jurassic Park River Adventure sits closed until November 20.
A Notice of Commencement filed in Orange County lists Garmendale Engineering Limited of Ilkeston, England for an Equipment Install at Universal City. Every Lost Continent update so far has been about tearing things down. This one might point the other way, though the filing never names the land.
Universal said in May that Thunder Falls Terrace would close this summer to become the new signature restaurant at Islands of Adventure, but never named a date. WDW News Today reports it seems the Jurassic Park counter-service spot quietly served its last guests on Sunday, July 19.
New construction walls have gone up directly in front of Mythos Restaurant, and the Lost Continent restrooms have closed, leaving just four venues open as Universal tears down one of Islands of Adventure's six original 1999 lands. Mythos itself is still set to close permanently in 2027, and Universal has not said what will replace the area.
