Fun Facts About Dinosaur Herds
Many plant-eating dinosaurs probably traveled in herds. Scientists think so because of fossil trackways where lots of animals walked side by side in the same direction. In a group, young ones are safer and it’s easier to find fresh food. Dinosaurs lived in the Mesozoic Era (Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous) for well over 150 million years. Their fossils have turned up on every continent, even Antarctica.
What to Do With Your Finished Herd
Cut out the three dinos and glue each to a craft stick for a puppet show. Or lay out a trail of yarn and move the herd step by step to its goal. Where could they be headed?
