A journey thought time, exploring Government Canyon Dinosaur Tracks with Ranger John.
Around 110 million years ago, during the Cretaceous Period, water brought dinosaurs here. Two kinds of ancient giants left their tracks on what was a beach, along the Gulf of Mexico’s early reaches.
Today, you can take a strenuous hike to a creek bed to see tracks. Scientists believe these are tracks of theropods, three-toed, two-legged animals who ate meat; and much larger sauropods, round-footed, four-legged animals who ate plants.
