NEW YORK, June 9 (UPI) -- Sesame Street has posted online Jurassic Cookie, a video parody of Jurassic Park starring its beloved Muppet Cookie Monster.

"It took a brilliant scientist with a brilliant idea to open the world's first cookie theme park -- Jurassic Cookie. Join Cookie Monster and his friends in an action-packed, giant, dino-cookie chase!" a synopsis said.

The five-minute clip features the furry, blue monster dressed as the late Richard Attenborough's character -- the theme park's creator John Hammond -- in the classic 1993 dinosaur movie. In the video, Cookie Monster's scientific experiment goes awry and an enormous, dinosaur-shaped biscuit chases him and two, small children.

"First time cookie ever tried to eat me," the fleeing monster declared.

Jurassic World, a third sequel in the Jurassic Park franchise, is to open in theaters Friday.
