The biggest dinosaur footprint
The researchers found at least 20 tracks of dinosaurs with a diameter of 1.4 to 1.5 meters, spread over an area of 10 hectares in the Jura Mountains, eastern France. This dinosaur footprint suspected to be the biggest footprint ever found.
Jean-Michel Mazin researchers from the National Center of Scientific Research, France, Wednesday (7/10), assuming there are still hundreds, even thousands, of latent tracks.
Jura region is believed to have a gathering place for sauropods, the largest and long-necked dinosaur that ate plants 150 million years ago.
Of the trail is found, the sauropod estimated to have weighed 33-44 tons with a length of 25 meters. Any trace of it, researchers can learn the behavior and habits of sauropods.
