The world’s largest collection of dinosaur footprints has been uncovered in
Western Australia. The prints were made between 115 and 120 million years ago,
and range in size from just a few centimetres to 1.7 metres. They cover more
than 80 kilometres of coastland to the north and south of Broome, but their
exact locations are being kept secret. Last year, thieves used a jackhammer to
drill out the world’s only Stegosaurus footprints from a site
nearby.
