The Primeval World diorama was originally constructed by Disney for the 1964 New York World's Fair as part of the Ford Magic Skyway attraction, where it was viewed from a Ford Mustang and was narrated by Walt Disney himself. The attractions It's a Small World, Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, and the Carousel of Progress were also constructed for the same Fair and transferred to the park after the closing of the Fair in 1965.
 * Edaphosaurus - Actually a synapsid (a reptile-like ancestor of mammals) that died out before the dinosaurs existed, though this is a common mistake. They are among the first creatures shown, and have characteristic glowing red eyes.

 * Giant Scorpion
 * Giant Dragonfly
 * Brontosaurus (Apatosaurus)- A large, long-necked plant eater seen in the water. Both adult and young are present.

 * Triceratops - A parenting couple of these three-horned dinosaurs are seen watching over their hatchlings.
