“Long, long, long ago, giant millipedes roamed through the dense tropical forests that covered #Fife. And, 310 million years later, their footprints can be still be seen! Arthropleura, as these gigantic, #prehistoric woodlice (or slaters) are officially known, left a trail of 20 cm-wide tracks on an outcrop of sandstone near #Boarhills, alongside a mini-forest of #fossilised, #prehistoric tree roots.”

@sco7sbhoy Fascinating stuff. I appreciate that you’ve given detail in the post, but there is no image description added to the photo you attached, so the many visually impaired people here can’t tell what it actually shows. It would be a great help if you could help maintain Mastodon’s inclusive culture by adding Alt Text descriptions to your photos. Thanks very much.
