An Oklahoma store is pleading for the return of a dinosaur statue stolen from outside the business under cover of night.
The Decopolis store on Route 66 in Tulsa said a man bearing a tool kit was recorded on security cameras outside the store Sunday night moments before he was seen carrying away the store's statue of a Deinonychus, a dinosaur from the early Cretaceous Period.
"If anyone in the neighborhood finds a Deinonychus, let us know," the store said in a Facebook post.
The business said a police report would be filed.

I'm sure those cost a few hundred each, minimum.
