Millions of years ago dinosaurs were the wildlife in my local patch.
A visit to Oxford's Natural History Museum clearly shows where dinosaurs roamed.
At some points in time my patch was underwater and sometimes on very marshy land.
Over the past couple of centuries people have discovered bones that show dinosaurs used to live where we live now.
