Scientists have discovered over two hundred sixty dinosaur footprints in Brazil and Cameroon, providing insight into ancient geography. The footprints, found over three thousand seven hundred miles apart, suggest that dinosaurs roamed a corridor that connected South America and Africa before the supercontinent Gondwana split. Researchers studied similar geological structures in the Borborema Plateau in Brazil and the Koum Basin in Cameroon. The footprints, preserved in ancient floodplains, belong to theropods, sauropods, and ornithischians. Paleontologist Dr. Louis Jacobs remarked, “Dinosaur tracks reveal information that bones cannot,” offering a glimpse into the movement and behavior of prehistoric species.
