Wild Beast, Wooden roller coaster at Canada's Wonderland, Vaughan, Canada

The Wild Beast extends across 960 meters of track, featuring a double out-and-back layout with a figure 8 design through its wooden structure.

Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters supplied two 28-passenger trains for the Wild Beast when it opened as one of five original coasters at Canada's Wonderland in 1981.

The roller coaster made an appearance in a Fraggle Rock television episode titled The Thirty-Minute Work Week, with puppeteer Dave Goelz performing a scene.

The wooden coaster reaches speeds of 90 kilometers per hour and requires riders to meet a minimum height requirement of 122 centimeters.

Designer Curtis D. Summers constructed the coaster in-house rather than through Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters, departing from standard industry practices of the time.
