The Strange Graveyard At The Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry
Listen now
Description
There's something strange about the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry. The fossils found there date back to the Late Jurassic Period and one species accounts for roughly two-thirds of all the bones: Allosaurus fragilis. But what killed all these big predators?
