All four seasons on Dinotopia?

Hey, does anyone know if Dinotopia has all four seasons or is it too close to the equator (I know Tentpole and Thermala and all those places have snow, so I know Dinotopia has at least two seasons *laughs*).
I mean, does it have fall? And would fall happen in the Rainy Basin?

What most people don't realize is that Dinotopia is a BIG place. think of it logically... rainforests usually don't have a fall were they loose all there leaves... but oak forests do... so treetown and that area probably have spring and fall but the rainy basin doesn't... remember a mountain range seperates the two...
The size of Dinotppia makes it so taht most climates are represented there... deserts, temperate, jungle, rain forest, mountain, plain... think of the habitat partners...

Enit, I tend to disagree.

Dinotopia is only about 300 Km from north to South. I travel about 700 km every holidays and the changes in temperature are negligable. Also, I live in Australia and we have a lot of evergreen rainforests here, and we DO get fall. It doesn't snow (and we call it Autumn) but it's the same thing. The biggest difference is the amount of flowers, pollen and stuff. We also get spring - its the time that birds and other animals start breeding. This trend extends up the coast too so it's not localised to my latitude (or is that longitude?:S). So yeah - I think Dinotopia has all four seasons in one form or another.
And I SCREAM at all those people that think Australia doesn't have 4 seasons!!! I've got a Norwegian friend who thought that because he couldn't see them on Skippy. I bet he wasn't looking at the presence of Eucalypt seeds on gum trees or the presence of birds, etc. It probably didn't dwell on the bushfires either (that's summer, believe it or not). And we do get snow here, in the South. So yeah - just a little tidbit of info for all of ya, haha!

Thanks. I should have thought of that.
Yeah, Dinotopia's about half the size of Wahington state!
BIG Island, hehehe. But nice. It's logical that the Island is that big, since you have all those dinosaurs on it. What, it's like...two hundred and fifty miles long. I kinda wish it was bigger.
Hey, I wonder what the outer-world would think with all those ships disappearing and all?
Newscaster: "And today, three years after the disappearance of one passenger plane, five and a half years after the disapearance of the Atlantic Cruze Ship, another ship disappears in the mid-Atlantic region (or whereabouts Dinotopia is locate). Is this another Bermuta (sp?) Triangle? More on that tonight at KEPR news eleven, at eleven."
Hahaha. Anyway, yah. I'm just being silly. ^_^
Thanks Enit,

Itwhich is on the other side of Africa near India so its a bit more south andprobably has a climate a bit like Australia. Imust put some of my cruise story up again, the original and the Ellie one. The last bit of the code is only in the film, so people can only guess. It's been changed. One guess was "Don't pee in the bath" for the humans.
