4-year-old discovers 220 million year old dinosaur footprint in Wales

Four-year-old Lily Wilder was walking with her father with her dog when she made an unusual discovery on a Welsh beach, after noticing a perfectly preserved dinosaur footprint 220 million years ago. According to Welsh authorities, the area is a protected site known for its fossils, but no one has previously noticed this imprint on a low rock. The rock will be brought to the National Museum Cardiff, and Wilder’s name will be named as his official ‘finder’.

Wilder, who according to her mother loves dinosaurs, described the find. “It was on a low rock, shoulder height for Lily, and she just spotted it and said, ‘Look, Daddy,'” her mother, Sally Wilder, 41, told NBC News. “She’s really excited, but does not quite understand how wonderful it is.”
