Discovered the most dangerous region of death on Earth: 'Monster Sanctuary'

Scientists have turned back on planetary history and discovered that an area of ​​the Sahara desert is actually the Earth's death element, the birthplace of the most terrifying beasts of all time.

A cretaceous rock formation site in southeastern Morocco, with the strange name "Ice Cream Group" has been identified by paleontologists as Earth's most dangerous place , based on archaeological evidence found. seen over the last century.

Kem Kem Group was not a arid place as it is now, but a tropical delta with a large river system, an excellent environment for aquatic and terrestrial animals. That is the premise for the dangers of the land because the diverse ecosystem is a great source of life for the giant "beasts" .

If in some other places, the presence of a dinosaur or ancient giant predator was enough to turn it into a horror land, what people find in the Sahara beyond imagination.

The lead author of the study, PhD - assistant professor Nizar Ibrahim of the University of Detroit Mercy (USA) and University of Portsmouth (UK), took the example of the current status of the "death zone" of Ice Cream Group 100 million years ago. before, the "golden age" of the Cretaceous dinosaurs. At that time, it was home to the three largest family of hunting dinosaurs ever known: Cararodontosaurus serrated teeth; Deltadromus with "super speed" legs ; Some giant "thunder lizards" pterosaurs. Not scary enough, this is also the home of swamp predators - giant ancient crocodiles and predators belonging to the "crocodile-like" group that is now extinct.

"This is said to be the most dangerous place in the history of the planet Earth, where if people can travel in time, they will not survive long" - Dr. Ibrahim said.

The main food source that attracts the most dangerous hunters on this planet is the abundant supply of fish in the Cretaceous Sahara. According to Professor David Martill from the University of Portsmouth, co-author, the fish at the time were not like the ones we often see, but were oversized fish, including ancient coelacanth and giant lungfish. There is also a fish that is both a hunter and a hunter: the freshwater shark Onchopristis with teeth like dozens of long daggers.
