‘Dino-Brexit’: bizarre migration saw dinosaurs flood out of Europe in Cretaceous Period
Brexit caused migration crisis!
It is probably Europe’s earliest migration crisis. Around 125 million years ago huge numbers of dinosaurs began to flood out of Europe and palaeontologists do not know why.
Scientists at Leeds University used computer modelling of the fossil record to work out the movements of dinosaurs during the Mezozoic Era, from 225 million years ago to 65 million years ago and found an odd exodus in the middle.
They used the Paleobiology Database which contains every documented and accessible dinosaur fossil from around the world to work out the migration patterns of species.
