With dinosaurs being found all over the world and the Europe having a mountainous and rugged terrain, one would think there would not be a lot of Dinosaurs to be found but on the contrary, there are have been a lot of discoveries, even from places where one would least expect. Europe does have a great variety of different kinds of prehistoric species along with dinosaurs and a lot of them showcases different ecological changes which normally is not see in other species of the same kind.

And would you look at that 126 species have been found throughout the whole of Europe. Well there are only a couple of species which have been found somewhere else and some are also quite fragmentary but the fact of the matter is the sheer variety of dinosaurs found and it creates an idea of the prehistoric Europe. I hope you liked the list of all the dinosaurs found in Europe and if you would like me to make a list of the flying and marine reptiles, please do let me know down below and I hope to see you again soon in other Prehistoric Pedia posts!!!!
