Many countries have declared lockdowns and imposed strict guidelines to halt the spread of coronavirus.
This means people have to stay at home with limited trips for groceries.
But one man got so bored that he decided to go out with thick protection: A T-Rex costume. And that’s not something you see every day, especially during a lockdown.
The T-Rex man was walking down the street in Murcia, Spain when a police officer stopped him. The cop confronted the prehistoric living being but no arrest was made.
It is assumed the dinosaur was warned to stay at home.
A video, filmed by a resident from their balcony, was shared by the Police Department of Murcia and is now making rounds online.
En estado de alarma se permite el paseo de mascotas acompañadas de una persona, siempre con paseos cortos para hacer sus necesidades.

Despite the seriousness of the situation, the department did not hesitate to share a joke on Twitter.
“During the state of alarm, walking pets is allowed if they are accompanied by a person. Taking short walks can help them relieve themselves,” Policia Local Murcia wrote.
“However, having a Tyrannosaurus Rex complex is not covered. #stayathome.”
Another video emerged of what seems like the same person taking the trash out in T-Rex costume. People assume that the man use the thick costume to shield him from infection.
One internet user commented: “As someone who lives in spain, knowing that the t-rex costume isn’t the weirdest thing that has happened since all of this began, makes me think if I should be proud of my country.”
Another wrote: “I actually choked on my cereal, I was laughing so hard at that video. Especially with the Jurassic Park theme in the background.”
A third added: “As the other post stated, wild animal comes out into the city during quarantine. I just didn’t expect it is t-rex for Spain, you think it will be bull.”
