Denali's Jurassic Secret: Dinosaur Tracks Bigger Than Football Fields!
University of Alaska Fairbanks scientists have unveiled the largest known single dinosaur track site in Alaska.
The Coliseum boasts layers upon layers of preserved prints in rock.
A recent paper in the journal Historical Biology delves deep into the intricacies of this site.
Earth's tectonic activities transformed this flat terrain, tilting it vertically and unveiling the cliff adorned with tracks.
The site also revealed fossilized plants, pollen grains, and traces of freshwater shellfish and invertebrates.
The tracks indicate a diverse range of dinosaurs, from juveniles to adults, that frequented the area over millennia.
The National Park Service emphasizes the importance of preserving such fossil-rich sites.
Every year, thousands flock to Denali to experience its natural beauty, and now they have another reason to be amazed.
