Dinosaur footprint fossils - Chinese tourism scenic spots

Dinosaur footprint fossils - Chinese tourism scenic spots

In the United States and a joint team in the city Victor E flag Chubb found a large number of dinosaur footprints, including in our country for the first time found a large sauropod dinosaur footprints, and found a sauropod (plant eating dinosaurs) and Type of animal feet (carnivorous dinosaur) tracks mixed in the same place, this is the first time in my hair . Focus: a study of more than 100 points footprint in mid-August this year by the Beijing Natural History Museum, the Museum of Inner Mongolia, Hubei Heritage Victor flag station and the United States composed of the University of Colorado, the United States and a joint team, the city of Victor E Chubb regional flag of dinosaur footprints were really wild Study. Experts believe that these well-preserved fossils of dinosaur footprints, clear and distinct, widely distributed large number of trace length. Location is found in the desert or the shore of the river bed, is now 100,000,000 3 million years ago formed the early Cretaceous strata. Sauropod footprints were round, the largest diameter of 89 cm, the smallest 0 cm, the study points up to a total of more than 100 footprints found very valuable, very valuable. Precious: Food Plant Is Hard to Find Why sauropod dinosaur footprints of dinosaur footprints found that appears to be so valuable? Because? In accordance with the normal ecological situation? Plant food than meat-eating dinosaur footprints Long's footsteps. But? It is strange? In our country and even around the world, the three-toe footprints in all the meat-long dinosaur footprints found in the possession of great proportion. Experts believe that dinosaurs eat plants to live in the waters, swamp environment in the surrounding areas can get near enough food, do not have to walk Long way, and step on the lush vegetation of the area is also very difficult to leave footprints, the footprints left on the formation of fossils is extremely rare. The flesh-eating dinosaur have to hunt around looking for food plants, dinosaurs, and sometimes eat plant in the pursuit of the dinosaurs into the water, and the flesh-eating dinosaurs are still ongoing around the shore, so stay Can be found in volume. Use: Chubb to explore the ecological expert analysis, Chubb found in so many dinosaur footprints and fossilized footprints of birds, there are a number of other fossil organisms, in the Cretaceous era that once the dinosaurs come and go often. The ecological environment of the dinosaur's Health Favorable reproduction, lakes, marshes and river banks of the formation of uniform thickness of sediment, moderate soft and hard, is the formation of dinosaur footprints preserved and is very important. The region has a rich dinosaur footprint fossils, a good state of preservation, conservation and long-term study of the value of this study is to examine only a good opening . The study of dinosaur footprints in the region to restore the ancient ecological environment of great value, such as footprints can determine the direction of the river bank, water depth, the formation of sedimentary rock formation, and so on. In addition, the study of dinosaur footprints is also a supplementary study of dinosaur fossils, footprints, you can determine the speed of dinosaurs sports To the living habits, which are not their own dinosaur fossils from the study concluded.
