The Department of Parks and Recreation in Prince George’s County has discovered a host of dinosaur bones at its Dinosaur Park in Laurel, Maryland. On Wednesday, the Department announced the discovery of the bones themselves and the significance of their discovery. Paleontologists are calling this rare discovery of dinosaur bones from multiple different species in the same geologic layer, a “bone bed.” This “bone bed” found in Maryland is historic for the state, as it is the first of its kind found in the area since 1887. However, it is also a milestone for paleontological research. Researchers with Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPCC) made the discovery where once an ancient river flowed. It was likely a giant log jam, where the bones scores of dinosaurs piled up nearly 115 million years ago.
