ROME — Thousands of dinosaur footprints dating back 210 million years have been found in a national park in northern Italy, officials announced Tuesday.The footprints — some of which are up to 40cm (15in) in diameter — are aligned in parallel rows, and many show clear traces of toes and claws.A wildlife photographer stumbled upon what is thought to be one of the oldest and largest known collections of dinosaur footprints, dating back to the Triassic Period in the Stelvio National Park, near the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympic venue of Bormio.The discovery was striking for the sheer number of footprints, estimated at as many as 20,000 over some five kilometers, and the location near the Swiss border, once a prehistoric coastal area, that has never previously yielded dinosaur tracks,...
