First dinosaur eggs identified in India

By BBC World Service

In 1982, nests of dinosaur eggs were identified for the first time in India.

They were found in Jabalpur, on a historic fossil site and former British military cantonment.

The eggs were from Titanosaurs, living at the end of the Cretaceous Period.

Palaeontologist Professor Ashok Sahni made the discovery, he’s been speaking to Laura Jones.
