The Institute of Geo-environment Inspection in Nei Menggol found the dinosaur footprints near Hailiutu, the capital town of Wulatezhongqi, Nei Menggol in 2006. In the tracksite, 119 vertebrate tracks were recognized, including theropod tracks:Eubrontes glenrosensis and Kayentapus hailiutuensis ichnosp. nov, ornithopod tracks: Anomoepus intermedius, and crocodile tracks, Batrachopus. The track bearing layer consists of an undulating exposure of coarse sandstone containing scour features indicating flow towards the southeast. The track makers of the footprints studied here are suggested respectively to be Megalosaurus, Dilophosaurus and Hypsilophodont. The assemblage of the tracks in Hailiutu is similar to that found in the Lower Jurassic of Podole area, Poland. Then the age of the tracks bearing beds are identified to be Early Jurassic. Hailiutu area had many intermountain basins with plentiful rain in Early Jurrasic.
