Dinosaur fossils have been found on every continent of Earth, including Antarctica but most of the dinosaur fossils and the greatest variety of species have been found high in the deserts and badlands of North America. These fossils are dinosaur remains that help people to understand what amazing creatures they were back in the ages when they roamed the planet. Information is greatly gathered from sources such as old bones, footprints, stomach stones, eggs and even feces. These are all considered fossils.

Paleontologists note that they routinely pull complete skeletons from digs in the United States, particularly from the states of Texas to Montana. A layer of rock below the Earth called the Morrison formation is the most productive source of fossils on the North American continent. It is where most of the popular dinosaurs, such as Stegosaurus and Brontosaurus were first found, according to the National Geographic Society.

To conclude, experts like to state that dinosaur fossils have been found on all 7 continents, with some species like the Dicynodont located on each continent. North America nonetheless remains at the top of the list as one of the rifest locations for dinosaur fossils, with Asia (China) coming in as a close second and another very desirable place to dig.
