![]() I know these are over generalizations made to point the audience to a “better” solution to a perceived “footprint problem,” but even the top geologists, Dr. At an Answers in Genesis conference I attended a speaker mocked the idea that footprints of dinosaurs could be preserved by conventional geological methods pointing out that it would be silly to think that footprints on a beach or even muddy lake edge would last long enough to harden into rock and be preserved. At least they can’t be preserved by any process that occurs today. In conversations with young earth creationists I have been assured that footprints can’t be preserved as fossils. There are two obvious prints to my sons right but there are several other less apparent prints on this same block. But how were so many footprints preserved? Dinosaur footprints on a block of sandstone near Moab Utah. Millions of these tracks have been identified from just the tiny fraction of the rocks that are exposed at the surface of the Earth. Countless numbers of footprints made by hundreds of kinds of organisms are preserved in hundreds of individual layers of the geological column.
