And the flood was forty days upon the earth... Genesis 7:17
"Eight species of dinosaurs were recently unearthed in the Prince Creek Formation of northern Alaska. The latest discovery, published in Current Biology,
--- claims the bones were near the North Pole at the time of their burial
in Cretaceous System rocks (about 80-85 degrees north 
latitude).
This would give the region about 120 days of total darkness each year,
making it difficult for dinosaurs to survive in such an extreme cold
climate. Evolutionary theory provides no explanation for why
dinosaurs would be buried in such environments—but Bible-based Flood
geology does.
For 70 years now, dinosaurs found in supposedly polar climates have baffled secular paleontologists due to the cold conditions they would have faced and the long periods of darkness involved. Previously, dinosaur fossils and their egg shells were found in northeastern Russia, at a paleolatitude (which means their supposed latitude at the time of burial, before the shifting of tectonic plates) of about 70-75 degrees north of the equator. This latitude would have given about 45 days of total darkness per year.
Last year, evolutionary scientists announced the discovery of dinosaurs in southeastern Australia that they claimed were deposited at a paleolatitude of 76 degrees south of the equator. Lead author Patrick Druckenmiller, from the University of Alaska Museum of the North told New Scientist: “We knew dinosaurs had been there, but we didn’t know if they could deal with the cold or even the darkness of winter.”
---In the past, most evolutionary paleontologists assumed that dinosaurs migrated to extreme high latitudes during the long summers and migrated away in the winter months. But the most recent discovery included many eggs, hatchlings, and juveniles in the cache of bones, indicating that these dinosaurs couldn’t have migrated.
“There’s good evidence that these dinosaurs had incubation periods of over five months,” said Druckenmiller. This means that if the dinosaurs laid eggs in the spring, they wouldn’t have hatched until fall. These new hatchlings would have been too small to migrate the great distances necessary to escape the cold and darkness of winter. This implies the dinosaurs were year-round residents of these locations.
Q: How could dinosaurs live so far north and south of the equator and at such high latitudes where the mean annual temperatures were about 50 degrees Fahrenheit or less? Secular science offers no adequate solution to this dilemma.
A: Our Column Project team has mapped out the megasequences and sedimentary rocks across multiple continents. We used these data to reconstruct the pre-Flood land masses and their environments. It resulted in a pre-Flood world that resembled Pangaea and was centered at the equator. In fact, nearly all of the land was at latitudes of less than 45 degrees north or south of the equator.
Our reconstruction places the newly discovered dinosaurs in Alaska
at
about 35-40 degrees north latitude in the pre-Flood world—not at 80-85
degrees where the researchers placed them. This provides a
much more moderate climate where dinosaurs could thrive. These dinosaurs
didn’t live in the far north, nor was Alaska this far north in the
original Creation. It wasn’t until rapid plate motion during the Flood
that these buried dinosaurs were moved to their present location in
Alaska of about 70 degrees north latitude. They were never at 80-85
degrees north.
ICR’s plate reconstructions also place the other discoveries of high latitude Russian and Australian dinosaurs at similarly moderate latitudes in our pre-Flood world.
