Dumb Tourists destroying 200 mil years old dinosaur fossil at Utah Park, Here's Why
In an embarrassing act of shame, tourists at the Utah State Park are destroying the ancient dinosaur tracks that are nearly 200 million years old. Officials reported that the visitors at the park are throwing the sandstones carrying the footprints into the Utah Lake. Park officials have not yet found the actual reason behind such act of vandalism but some believe the visitors might be doing such an undesirable activity without realizing the true potential of the rocks
Josh Hansen who works as a manager at the Utah State Park said that he was shocked to see a boy throwing way large amounts of the sandstones into the lake while Hansen was casually boating across the water body. Hansen said it concerned him when he his eyes quickly fell on the tracks of dinosaurs that the sandstones carried on them. Hansen stated that it is an integral part of the history which needs to be protected.
“Some of the tracks are very distinct to the layperson,” Hansen said,”but just as many are not. That is why it is important to not disturb any rocks at the dinosaur trackway.”
