Listening Practice - Une découverte paléontologique

from Learn French with daily podcasts

On fait le point sur une découverte paléontologique assez incroyable dans les Alpes italiennes. We're taking stock of a quite incredible paleontological discovery in the Italian Alps.Alors, imaginez un peu. So, just imagine.Juste à côté du futur site des Jeux Olympiques d'hiver de 2026, des chercheurs ont trouvé un champ d'empreintes de dinosaures. Right next to the future site of the 2026 Winter Olympics, researchers found a field of dinosaur footprints.On parle de l'un des plus importants au monde, vieux de plus de 200 millions d'années. We are talking about one of the most important in the world, more than 200 million years old.Alors, qu'est-ce qu'il faut retenir? So, what should we remember?Premièrement, c'est l'ampleur de la trouvaille. Firstly, it is the scale of the find.Le site se trouve dans le Parc National du Stelvio et il s'étend sur des centaines de mètres. The site is located in the Stelvio National Park and stretches over hundreds of meters.C'est un photographe qui l'a repéré sur une paroi rocheuse super abrupte. It was a photographer who spotted it on a very steep rock face.On parle de traces qui ont 210 millions d'années. We're talking about traces that are 210 million years old.C'est juste énorme. It's just huge.Deuxièmement, les dinosaures qu'on a identifiés. Secondly, the dinosaurs that have been identified.La majorité des empreintes, qui peuvent atteindre 40 centimètres quand même, et bien elles appartiennent à des Prosaauropodes. The majority of the footprints, which can still reach 40 centimeters, well, they belong to Prosauropods.Ils se déplaçaient sur deux pattes et avec de sacrées griffes. They moved on two legs and had serious claws.Selon le paléontologue Cristiano Dal Sasso, l'organisation des traces n'est pas du tout un hasard. According to the paleontologist Cristiano Dal Sasso, the organization of the traces is not at all a coincidence.On voit des empreintes parallèles, ce qui suggère des troupeaux se déplaçant de manière synchronisée. We see parallel footprints, which suggests herds moving in a synchronized manner.En bref, cette découverte c'est bien plus que de simples fossiles, c'est une véritable fenêtre sur la vie sociale de ces dinosaures. In short, this discovery is much more than simple fossils, it is a real window into the social life of these dinosaurs. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
