It is currently 5:08p.m and we are interviewing Ranger Molly from the Dinosaur Park in Utah for our 6th call. This park contains 1,500 exposed dinosaur bones and fossils on a wall that is built into the building. There have been new species dug up and discovered in this park. We learned that through the sediments in rocks you can tell when the fossil or bone was placed. The dinosaurs were preserved through mud inside of a past river. Other species such as crocodilians, old crocodiles, and marine reptiles, which are distantly related to dinosaurs but are not dinosaurs. At this park, there are also a couple rivers that you can raft through and hiking trails to hike on. The pictures below show Ranger Molly explaining the different types of fossils found here and the outdoor geography of what the park looks like.
