Premise

Dino Ranch is a preschool adventure series set in a world where humans and dinosaurs live alongside each other. While Dino Ranch is first and foremost a working, self-sustained ranch run by the Cassidy family, it also serves as a dinosaur sanctuary.

Characters

Dino Ranch is operated by the Cassidy family, consisting of Bo and Jane Cassidy and their 3 adopted children, Jon, Min, and Miguel, and dinosaurs.

Main characters
  • Jon is 10 years old, the oldest kid in the Cassidy family, the leader of the three siblings and rides Blitz, the speedy velociraptor. Jon is an aspiring dino-trainer who is an expert on dinosaurs, and a terrific athlete. Voiced by Tyler Nathan in Season 1, and Jacob Soley in Season 2 onwards.
  • Min is 8 years old, the middle child in the Cassidy family who is the only female of the trio, and rides Clover, the loving brontosaurus. Min is a dino-doctor in training and uses her medical expertise to help any sick or injured dino who needs Dino Ranch's help. Sometimes Min will be the leader of the Dino Ranchers and the Flyer and Rescue Squad instead of Jon. Voiced by Ava Ro.
  • Miguel is 6 years old, the youngest child in the Cassidy family, and rides Tango, the tiny but mighty triceratops. Miguel is an inventor and loves to build things, especially new inventions he's come up with. Voiced by Jacob Mazeral.
  • Blitz is Jon's best buddy and the fastest velociraptor around. Voiced by Joshua Graham.
  • Clover is a big-hearted brontosaurus and Min's dino-doctor assistant. Voiced by Deven Mack.
  • Tango is a mighty triceratops who loves to bash things and has incredible strength. She is Miguel's best friend and helps him build things. Voiced by Athena Karkanis.
  • Bo, or "Pa" to the Dino Ranchers, is the adoptive father of Jon, Min, and Miguel, and husband of Jane. He is an expert rancher and tends to the dino herds with his T-Rex, Biscuit. Voiced by Scott Gorman.
  • Jane, or "Ma" to the Dino Ranchers, is the adoptive mother of Jon, Min, and Miguel, and wife of Bo. She is the head dino doctor of the ranch and runs the Hatchery with her Parasaur, Quack. Voiced by Athena Karkanis.
  • Biscuit is Bo's Tyrannosaurus and the lead dinosaur of Dino Ranch.
  • Quack is Jane's Parasaurolophus and her dino-doctor assistant.
  • Thunderbolt is a fast-as-lightning Dimorphodon who is Jon and Blitz's flying partner who has a Turbo-Claw.
  • Cloud is a gentle Thalassodromeus who is Min and Clover's flying partner who has a Dino Buggy.
  • Twister is a mighty Tapejara who is Miguel and Tango's flying partner who wields a Dino-Digger.

Supporting characters
  • Thunderfoot is a towering spinosaurus with a big appetite, this dino is the king of the badlands.
  • Angus is the Cassidy's tough, yet temperamental field plowing Triceratops.
  • Clara Tinhorn is the oldest (despite her stature) sibling and leader of the raptor-riding Tinhorn Trio, the Dino Ranchers’ mischievous rivals. The Trio likes to mess with the Dino Ranchers and their dinosaurs, and pull nasty stunts like taking a wild t-rex egg. Voiced by Samantha Weinstein.
  • Ike Tinhorn is the middle child of the Tinhorn Trio, and likes to challenge Clara's authority. Voiced by Jonah Wineberg.
  • Ogie Tinhorn is the youngest of the Tinhorn Trio, and while he likes to go along with his older siblings’ naughty plans, he has a soft heart and occasionally helps the Dino Ranchers do the right thing as well. Voiced by Shayle Simons.
  • Sonny the Kid is the greatest dino rustling mastermind of all time- or so he likes to say of himself. Sonny is a dinosaur super-fan and loves pulling rustling heists so he can ride on the amazing dinosaurs he admires so much. But while he is an incredible trickster, he's a terrible rider. Voiced By Ian Ho.
  • Tara Dacktle runs the Dino Airport with her dad, Zachary, and pterodactyl pal, Wilbur. Bold, adventurous, and a bit of a daredevil, Tara's the best pterodactyl-flyer around for when the Dino Ranchers need a helping hand from the air. Voiced by Shechinah Mpumlwana.
  • Wilbur is Tara's high-flying pterodactyl pal and the head of the Dino Airport's fleet of rescue pteros. The massive pterosaur is an expert flyer and can transport all of the Dino Ranchers through the sky in his Dino Porter.
  • Zachary Dacktle or "Captain Dacktle" is Tara's pterosaur-flying dad; an upbeat and uber-enthusiastic pioneer of pterosaur flying. Zach is a kind and loving parent, who's also a bit flighty and his head is always in the clouds. Voiced by Deven Mack.
