Vico nel Lazio. Dinosaur Footprints in Vico in Lazio

In the mountains of Vico nel Lazio, the evidence of a real dinosaur of about 200 million years ago was discovered.

Along with other tracks, it could belong to the oldest species of Italian dinosaur of the Jurassic age.

The footprint is in a cave a few hundred meters from the top of Rotonaria, in the heart of the Ernici, and was well protected by nature.

The dinosaur was named Alex and a cartoon was created for schools.
