Another Expert Agrees With Dark Comet Theory

The quarry being discussed is located west of Arches National Park (Moab, Utah). It “contains dinosaurs of all sizes and ages, indicating a massive die-off event”. Because the location is near the shore of an ancient lake bed, scientists believe a drought was the cause (they were all after the remaining drops of water). The reason it is being discussed – most of the fractured bones were “angled ‘greenstick’ fractures that occur in fresh bones”.

So far the researchers have identified 67 individual dinosaurs representing 8 species – and they have only scratched the surface of this diverse quarry. Mysteriously, nearly all of the 4,200 bones recovered so far are fractured, as reported in the scientific journal Palaeo.

‘Although enough bones were recovered to assemble several complete dinosaurs, the vast majority of bones are broken to bits and pieces, just pulverized,’ said BYU professor Brooks Britt, lead author on the study.

Given that a global cataclysm (ie pole shift) is not an option for their speculations, the scientists have decided it was a stampede, brought on by a seemingly instant drought.

Imagine the gruesome sound of bones snapping as a thirsty, 30-ton dinosaur tramples a heap of fresh carcasses on his way to a rapidly shrinking lake.

…’Some of these bones were almost 5 feet long, and they are green, and you really have to work hard to shatter bone that’s still green,’ Britt said. ‘That means the big boys were stepping on those things. Those would have been audible, big snaps.’

Globally massive piles of fossilized bones have been found in narrow locations. Each time a new idea is promoted – like the La Brea tar pits, where silly animals got stuck in the tar, at such a rate that there’d be more dead animals than tar…
