La Plage aux Ptérosaures

Dive into the heart of a paleontological site classified as a National Nature Reserve and protected by a building since 2011.
At the end of the Jurassic, the region of Crayssac was by the sea. According to the tides, the mud deposits of this beach recorded the most subtle imprints.
150 million years later, the traces of this past are revealed. Then begins the study of the fingerprints which makes it possible to identify the culprits. Whether they walked on two legs or on all fours. To estimate their size but also for some, to know how fast they moved. Each of these “Jurassic” investigations brings one of the characters from this range back to life.
