Giant Straw Dinosaurs Invade Japanese Fields

STRAW DINOSAURS ON THE LOOSE IN JAPAN
Niigata Prefecture, Japan, has thought of a novel way to use the straw left over from their rice harvest. A “wara” or rice-straw festival is held every August 31st, where local artists build elaborate straw sculptures over wooden frames. The frames allow the statues to be larger and let spectators interact with them.
