What Did a Dinosaur Forest Look Like?
Forests in dinosaur times looked different from ours. There were lots of ferns – some as big as trees – plus conifers, ginkgos, and cycads. Ferns are ancient: they were around long before the dinosaurs! They’re true survivors too: after the big extinction at the end of the Cretaceous, ferns were the first plants to grow back in many places. You can still find ferns in the woods today – real prehistoric plants!
