Dinosaur -Tracks discovered at the Australian school

Date:

Dinosaurus tracks have been discovered on a dusty stone plate in the foyer of an Australian school. For more than 20 years this “rich part of history” was not particularly noticeable.

Coverers had discovered the stone plate in 2002 when they worked in a coal pit and a school in the small town of Biloela in northeastern Australia, where it has been in the entrance hall since then.

Only when scientists started a call to report potential fossils in the region, teachers reminded the Stone Plaat Dusty in the Schoolfoy.

It is “unbelievable that such a rich piece of history has been on a school building for time,” said paleontologist Anthony Romilio.

“Highest concentration”
The scientist from the University of Queensland was enthusiastic about the find: the record contains “one of the highest concentrations of dinosaur foot tracks” that were once found in Australia. They also came from the early Jura era about 200 million years ago, of which no petrified dinosaur bones in Australia were stored.

66 Individual prints
A total of 66 individual prints were discovered on the stone plate of almost a square meter. They come from a small herbivore called Anoepoepus Scambus, who went on two feet.
