Dinosaurs graze the lush delta lands of North America 76-74 million years ago
Dinosaurs graze the lush delta lands near the North American inner sea from about 76-74 million years ago. This area is now modern Utah and Arizona and part of the larger Grand Staircase formation. Cycads, ferns, treeferns, conifers and calamites would make up part of the flora. Large Parana pines can be seen in the distance. They became extinct in North America by the end of the Cretaceous, but still exist today in South America.
Dinosaurs visible in this image are Nasutoceratops in the front middle and Parasaurolophus cyrtocristatus in the far middle. The small Pachycephalosaur Stegoceras can be seen moving among the large ferns in the close foreground and across the lake moving along the shore can be seen a possible species of Albertosaurus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the lush delta lands of North America, approximately 76-74 million years ago. Once a thriving ecosystem, this area is now known as modern Utah and Arizona, forming part of the magnificent Grand Staircase formation. The vibrant flora that adorned these lands consisted of cycads, ferns, treeferns, conifers, and calamites. In the distance, towering Parana pines can be seen - a species that sadly became extinct in North America by the end of the Cretaceous period but still thrives today in South America. As we explore this image further, our attention is drawn to the majestic dinosaurs gracefully grazing amidst their verdant surroundings. Nasutoceratops stands prominently in the middle foreground while Parasaurolophus cyrtocristatus captivates us from afar. Moving among large ferns in close proximity is Stegoceras - a small Pachycephalosaur adding movement and intrigue to this prehistoric scene. Across the serene lake shore emerges what could possibly be a species of Albertosaurus on its journey through time. This artwork beautifully captures not only these fascinating creatures but also showcases their natural habitat with precision and artistry. Arthur Dorety's digitally generated illustration transports us into an era long gone yet forever etched within Earth's history. It serves as a reminder of our planet's rich biodiversity throughout different epochs and invites contemplation about our responsibility towards preserving nature for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
