Taichung, March 16 (CNA) A cute dinosaur animation has replaced the conventional "green man" on traffic lights around the National Museum of Natural Science in Taichung, thanks to a creative collaboration between the museum and the city's transportation bureau.

When the light is green, the dinosaur walks quickly; but when the light turns red, it gets angry and breathes fire.

The six prehistoric-themed lights are located in front of the museum at the intersection of Guanqian Road and Boguan Road, the Transportation Bureau of the Taichung City government said.

The National Museum of Natural Science posted about the dinosaur traffic lights on its Facebook page on Wednesday, reminding people to pay attention to cars when taking photographs of the signal poles.
