Aussie Fauna, about to add Dinosaurs

Federal politician, businessman and Australia's most creative tourism operator Clive Palmer has officially opened the gates to his very own dinosaur park.

"We were planning to do something much bigger and there was a block of land we had, which we were going to do something really, really secret that the press didn't know about,” he said.

“We were talking to the architect and said 'What should we do?' and he said 'Oh, just put 'dinosaur park' on it, they'll think it's a dinosaur park'.

"…Then, in Paris and London and Frankfurt and Beijing, they started writing these articles to say that we were going to clone dinosaurs here."

According to Palmer he then had 500 Sam Neil wannabes scientists from around the world apply for jobs, wanting to be involved in the cloning process.

When pressed by the press about the cost of his new tourist attraction though he was as cagey as a hungry T-Rex.

“I never worry about money because if you live your life properly, you always have enough money to do what you want to do,” he said.
