The Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry near Price, Utah is a large excavation site for paleontologists to recover dinosaur fossils.
Tens of thousands of fossil bones and fragments (and one dinosaur egg) from 22 species have been recovered here, all meticulously mapped on color-coded charts.
This quarry is a major supplier of dinosaur fossil remains to museums all over the world..
This may have been a mud hole during the Jurassic Era, and dinosaurs who wandered near it to drink may have become stuck in the mud. That made it a prime hunting ground for packs of rapacious Allosaurs.
The remains of forty-four Allosaurs have been recovered here, the greatest concentration ever found.
