Big Bone Lick State Park: Union, Kentucky
Big Bone Lick :P Strange name but here's the real story...
As it turns out, sulfur springs in the area created a salt lick, which attracted mammoths and other prehistoric animals to area. Many of those animals became stuck in the marshy area surrounding the salt lick, which created a huge deposit of fossils. So, some pretty “big bones” were found at this “lick,” hence the name! Located in Boone County, Kentucky, the park itself is a destination for those seeking an outdoor experience with a side of history. With thousands of fossils from over a dozen different prehistoric species (from mammoths to a giant ground sloth), Big Bone Lick offers an look at some of the earliest fossils ever discovered in the continental United States. Big Bone Lick State Park claims to be the “birthplace of American paleontology.”
Take a stroll with the fellas this week to see what other animals they found on their hike around the park!
