Description
Two types of dinosaurs left their footprints in the mud at the Purgatoire River Dinosaur Tracksite in the Picket Wire Canyon lands in south east Colorado. Meat eaters, like the Allosaurus that left this bird-like track and the huge plant-eating Apatosaurus formerly known as Brontosaurus.
Today, the Purgatoire River is a deeply carved, rugged and arid landscape, but about 150 million years ago, it resembled a lush conifer forest and tropical sea where the critters of the time could walk in the mud and leave their tracks.
