It has been more than a decade since researchers first announced that they’d found dinosaur footprints along the middle section of the Yukon River. And
along the middle section of the Yukon River. And when that team did make their discovery public, they also said that it was unlikely that people who live along the river even knew dinosaur footprints littered the riverbanks near them.“It was maybe about 30 to 35 years ago, and that’s when they had a fish wheel right down here,” Painter said.
The Painters’ description pretty accurately describes the footprint made by a bipedal, plant-eating dinosaur known as an ornithopod. And it’s helping the researchers meet their goal to better understand what locals know about the footprints. Turner, who is Nulato’s tribal administrator, said that her grandmother, who was born at Halfway Camp, never mentioned any large, three-toed footprints to her before. Now she’s eager to ask about it.
Madros Jr. said that he’s been finding ancient footprints left by giant reptiles along the riverbank his entire life. He grew up at a fish camp even further downriver. “You would never think twice about it. It’s just another rock. Throw it on the pile,” Madros Jr. said. Kaltag Mayor Violet Burnham’s husband has been finding dinosaur footprints along the Yukon River’s banks for years. While she says that the Yukon River’s paleontological story is interesting, her community’s main priority is survival.
