LuminousAphid Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Robb (or anyone else), as far as you know has anyone ever taken an animal on a roller coaster? Dog, cat, snake...? Brazilian tour groups don't count (all I could find with a google search was Expedition Everest videos because "Animal" Kingdom) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiftThrill Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I don't think the brain process that goes on during a roller coaster applies to animals, so I doubt it'd be a good idea if it was even legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I saw someone take a lap dog on the portable log flume they used to have in Virginia Beach. I couldn't believe they did it and I couldn't believe the ride ops allowed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I thought I've seen signs at some international parks that dogs were allowed on certain rides...maybe even a scenic railway but not any large coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irideburton4 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 There was a dog that rode the American Eagle when it opened. His name was zonker the wonder dog or something like that. There is video of it online too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminousAphid Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 To follow up, here is some info posted about Zonker. Don't know if it's true or not, but it could be! http://www.ultimaterollercoaster.com/forums/roller-coasters-theme-parks/161415 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 ^ What's even more screwed up is apparently this is this dude's coaster in his back yard?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I saw this thread and giggled and thought "there has to be a video somewhere of some asshole with their dog on a coaster" and went to YouTube, searched "Dog on a Coaster" and this was the first result!

ejot Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 In the first iteration of Mauch Chunk railway, the donkeys that carried the trains up the mountain would ride the train, loaded with coal, back down. This guy looks ready to ride (from RCDB): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
