Large dinosaur fossil site found in China

It is estimated that a large number of dinosaur fossils are buried at least 20 meters underground.

Scientists have unearthed a large dinosaur fossil site in southwestern China.

Paleontologists say 5,000 dinosaur fossils have been excavated from a "fossil wall". The wall is 150 meters long, eight meters high and two meters thick.

Officials say this is the largest fossil wall in the world. Experts believe that a great number of dinosaur fossils are still buried at least 20 meters under the ground.

The discovered fossils belong to five dinosaur categories and date back to the Jurassic period.
