Ichnofossils
Pterosaur, dinosaur, and bird tracks are preserved in situ, nearby the Haenam Uhangri Dinosaur Museum. Unnamed tracks of theropods, sauropods and ornithopods are known from the Uhangri Formation.[4] Star-shaped dinosaur trackway with an unknown trackmaker has been discovered and described. It is unsure whether it represents manus-only trackway made by a sauropod trackmaker during swimming,[5][6] or undertracks made by an ornithopod trackmaker.[7]
