NPR’s Science Friday spoke with Stantec’s Dustin Stewart about the largest dinosaur track in history recently discovered in Alaska
Researchers recently discovered a rocky outcrop at Denali National Park in Alaska covered in dinosaur tracks, which they dubbed the “Coliseum.” It’s the largest dinosaur track site ever found in Alaska.
The area has thousands of prints from generations of dinosaurs living about 70 million years ago, including: duck-billed dinosaurs, horned dinosaurs, raptors, tyrannosaurs.
Flora Lichtman talks with Dustin Stewart, Paleontologist at Stantec, about the largest dinosaur track in history recently discovered in Alaska.
