One of the longest dino tracks in the world revealed by drought in Texas state park

Drought conditions have revealed well-preserved dinosaur tracks at a state park in Texas

Newsroom September 4 12:06

An ongoing drought has revealed about 70 dinosaur tracks at Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, Texas.

The footprints, which date back about 110 million years, had been hidden under water and mud in the Paluxy River, which cuts through the state park, according to the Chron.com.

Experts think that the tracks, found in what is known as the state park’s Ball Room site, belonged to two different species of dinosaurs.
