Spring Hill’s famous pepto bismol pink dinosaur. Located on US Hwy 19 four miles south of Harold’s Auto Dino. The stucco dinosaur created in 1962 by a local artist at the direction of Jacob Foxbower. Foxbower was a taxidermist and he wanted the reptile to draw attention to his roadside taxidermy exhibit, which featured oddities like a stuffed two-headed calf. Later, as the roadside attraction craze died out, he turned the place into a more mainstream museum of mounted animals. Foxbower was known for his exquisite bird mounts, some of which made their way into the Smithsonian museums. He passed away in 1988, at the age of 81, and the museum remained open until 1998. When it closed, the dinosaur remained.
