Dinah the Pink Dinosaur, Fiberglass dinosaur statue in Vernal, United States.

The pink fiberglass dinosaur statue stands 40 feet tall and weighs 4,200 pounds, displaying its presence along Main Street in Vernal.

Built in 1958 as a sign holder for the Dine-A-Ville Motel, the statue received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.

The statue represents the mid-20th century commercial architecture trend of using large figures to attract customers along American highways.

Visitors can find the statue in a designated city park area near US-40, with clear visibility from the main road throughout the day.

The dinosaur statue maintains its original pink color scheme and holds a sign declaring Vernal as Utah's Dinosaur Land.
