More Dinosaur Tracks and the Genesis Flood

For a long time, it was thought that only hard things like bones, shells, and things could be preserved by fossilization. Dinosaur soft tissues threw secular paleontology for a loop. Also, improvements in technology and skill yielded fossilized things like brains and jellyfish.

Consider that footprints are delicate. Take a stroll on the seashore and make tracks. Turn around and watch the waves take them away. Fossil dinosaur trackways in some places need to be studied in a hurry before water destroys them. Others are discovered and they can be studied at leisure.

Tracks in Oxfordshire, England, made some news. Secular scientists assume them to be millions of years old (huge chunks of time are like toys for then), but that raises a prairie schooner-full of questions and doubts. Consider that these pristine prints had to lay there waiting to be discovered while undisturbed by all sorts of geologic activity going on around them. Also, a paleobiologist admitted that they have no idea what covered them up, maybe a storm dropped a lot of sediment... He's getting close to describing the Genesis Flood.

Uncovering animal tracks and trackways in sedimentary rocks is a testament to the Genesis Flood. Fascinating discoveries continue to be made with the latest trackway (200 footprints) being unearthed in Oxfordshire, England. The longest trackway is estimated to be 492 ft (150 m) in length and is probably longer. And therein lies the problem.

Dinosaur trackways are being discovered in many places, and Australia has a good one with a passel of tracks made by dozens of dinosaurs. From the description of the water deposits by the scientists, the Genesis Flood could easily account for its formation. The previous article pointed out several questions that the existence of tracks raise. So does this. One puzzler is that all the tracks found in various places are from adult dinosaurs. Where are the juveniles?

Dinosaur trackways are once again making the news. Australia is the setting of a remarkable series of dinosaur tracks attributed to ornithischian dinosaurs (one of two orders of dinosaurs).

Four scientists reported in Historical Biology, “One surface contains a single print, a second a trackway with two tracks, and the third features at least 13 trackways and numerous isolated prints representing one of the most densely concentrated dinosaur track surfaces in Australia” with the tracks being formed “in subaqueous, moderate-to-high energy conditions.” Dr. Anthony Romilio also said, “The [200-million-year-old] footprints are from 47 individual dinosaurs which passed across a patch of wet, white clay, possibly walking along or crossing a waterway.”
