113 million-year-old dinosaur footprints revealed

113 million-year-old dinosaur footprints revealed in the bottomless dry river

“Most of the recent tracks discovered in different areas of the river located in the park belong to Acrocanthosaurus.

This was a two-legged dinosaur, growing to be about 15 feet (4.57 m) tall and weighing nearly 7 tons,” said Stephanie Salinas Garcia, a spokeswoman for Dinosaur Valley Park in Glen Rose, Texas.

Garcia said another dinosaur that left footprints at the park was Sauroposeidon.

This dinosaur was about 60 feet (20 m) tall and weighed about 44 tons as an adult.

According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, more than 60 percent of the area in Texas experienced last week’s heat wave and drought.

This summer’s severe drought in Texas has caused parts of the river in Dinosaur Valley Park to dry up completely, exposing previously undiscovered dinosaur footprints.

Under normal weather conditions, the dinosaur footprints were covered by sediment under the river water.

“Being able to discover new dinosaur footprints is an exciting new experience at this park,” Garcia added.

However, Texas is getting a lot of rain again, the river will soon be full of water and these dinosaur footprints will soon be covered again.

“Although these dinosaur footprints are only visible for a short period of time, it brings excitement about the journey to find new dinosaur tracks at the park.

Dinosaur Valley Park will continue to protect these 113 million-year-old footprints not only for the present but also for future generations,” Garcia said.
