Volunteers in Utah are getting down in the dirt. Their little brooms brush away soil. Does that sound miserable or fun? Before you decide, you should know: It isn’t just any old soil. It’s covering dinosaur tracks. Are you racing to your broom closet yet?

A hiker found the tracks in Utah. There are 200 of them. They remind us of something we already know. We have an incredible Creator! His creation amazes us. The tracks belong to 10 ancient animals. Some came from the spiky ankylosaurus. Others belonged to the big-eyed dromaeosaurus. Another set comes from an animal we still have around today: the crocodile. There are even 17 footprints in a row. Those belonged to an ancestor of the Tyrannosaurus rex.

In one rock formation, a large plant eater’s footprint is right in the middle of prints from a meat-eater. Do you think the meat eater ate the plant eater?

Dinosaur scientists might know why these prints survived. They think it’s because of the way new dirt fell on top of them. It must have fallen fast and softly. That way the prints weren’t destroyed when the dirt became rock.

The site will be opened to the public. People will walk near the footprints. They will read signs about what they see. Will they be allowed to touch anything? No way!
