Ancient dinosaur tracks unveiled by receding water levels
Low water levels caused by a drought in Texas have revealed new giant dinosaur tracks believed to be around 110 million years old at Dinosaur Valley State Park. The park, known for its sauropod and theropod tracks, has seen an increase in discoveries due to the receding water levels. The newly discovered tracks are believed to belong to an Acrocanthosaurus and a Sauropodseiden species. Volunteers have been working to uncover and map the tracks, which are typically covered by sediment even when the river is dry. While the discoveries are exciting, the ongoing drought and high temperatures have had a negative impact on the area, including the drying up of the Paluxy River.
