Imagine trees, that look like rocks, that grew and died millions of years ago while North America was still attached to Africa…that is the Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona.
Hot, humid, lush, green, dinosaurs…not words you associate with Arizona, but 225 million years ago, this was the environment today’s petrified trees lived in, right here in present day Arizona (except for the tiny fact that Arizona, and the rest of our continent, was actually over near Africa, you know Pangea and all that).
