GeoPark Carnic Alps – home of the oldest saurians in Austria
Following the successful search for saurian tracks in 2013 three representatives of the earliest ter-restrail vertebrates and tetrapods were discovered in the Geopark. They belong to therapsids, or "mammal-like reptiles“ which gave rise to the true dinosaurs.
They truly belong to the oldest and first traces of saurians and terrestrail vertebrates in Austria.
In fact, one of the findings has been proven as the only one in the whole Alps.
