The Dinohumes story evolved from imagining what it would be like if dinosaurs still roamed the earth. While navigating congestion in downtown Toronto, traffic came to a standstill in front of the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) during a construction delivery. As I sat waiting for traffic to move forward I marvelled at the beauty and forward-thinking of the all-glass addition to the ROM and a thought occurred to me: how lovely it would be to display something intriguing behind those stunning window embellishments. What if there were city-dwelling dinosaurs who were born of mixed human and dinosaur ancestry? How would they travel about the city amongst other residents? As a progressive city that considers the well being of all its inhabitants, Toronto would create new lanes along the populated bicycle and vehicle lanes to safely accommodate the Dinohumes. Although different, they would be soon accepted by Torontonians and would become a new patch in our diverse city fabric. This is the story of how a new species came to be.
