Best Answer

Some of the most convincing evidence includes fossilized footprints, showing many individuals going in the same direction at the same time. An example would include the Glen Rose Trackway, which seems to show as many as twelve sauropods traveling in one direction, followed by up to six Acrocanthosaurus. There are also fossil sites with many skeletons of the same type of dinosaur, which may have all died together at the same time during a flash flood or similar catastrophe. Examples include Edmontosaurus and Pachyrhinosaurus. Also, there are some fossilized nesting grounds, with many, many nests in close proximity. If they nested together, they likely lived together. Examples include Maiasaura and Saltasaurus.
