The fossils were just lying in mud, we are told. They include animals that were not known to have lived in Texas – as they belonged to a different climate zone. This is explained as fossils of a warm period during the last Ice Age, which is one possibility. On a catastrophic level we may suppose they were washed into the cave by a tsunami wave – hence the wet mud. They may have originated in the Caribbean, or even in South America.
At https://dailygalaxy.com/2026/04/scientists-thought-dinosaurs-moved-alone/ ….. scientists, it is alleged, thought dinosaurs moved alone rather than in groups of species – and especially, not as mixed species tramping along in harmony. However, fossil dinosaur footprints from Alberta say differently. Several dinosaur species appear to occupy the same area within a limited time span. Herbivores as well as predators. The fossil footprints are preserved in sediment going back 76 million years ago. Were the dinosaaurs fleeing from some kind of catastrophic event?
At https://dailygalaxy.com/2026/04/pine-island-glacier-buried-jurassic-granite-antarctica/ ….on the volcanic peaks of the Hudson Mountains in the West Antarctic peninsular, pale pink granite boulders are perched on a bedrock of black basaltic lava. The boulders dot the ridge lines – glacial erratics in geological speak. They were transported there by ice – deposited from their original source. The mystery has been solved however as pink granite actually is the bedrock and the volcanic layer covers it. They originate from an area without the volcanic lava – for whatever reason. Ice would then have dislodged the bedrock and rolled the boulders. It might have been a mixture of ice and ice-melt water, the latter shaping and smoothing them at a later stage.
