SHANGHANG: Chinese scientists say they have found fossilized dinosaur tracks in Shanghang, East China’s Fujian Province, a landmark discovery in the province’s dinosaur research and ending the assumption that “no dinosaurs” had ever lived there, the Global Times learned from researchers on Tuesday.

The best preserved dinosaur footprints were from a diverse group of late cretaceous dinosaurs, Xing Lida, an associate professor from the Beijing-based China University of Geosciences, told the Global Times. The discovery was made on Nov. 7, 2020.
