Unearthing Ancient Giants: Denali National Park's Historic Dinosaur Discovery

Researchers from the University of Alaska Fairbanks have discovered a significant dinosaur track site within Denali National Park and Preserve, featuring thousands of tracks spanning multiple species. The site, which is the largest single-track site ever recorded in Alaska, also contains fossilized plants, pollen grains, and evidence of freshwater shellfish and invertebrates, providing insights into the ancient environment. The exact location is being kept private to protect the site from vandalism and theft, but the researchers hope that people will explore for fossils while preserving the area for others to appreciate.
