Researchers publish findings on an 'amazing' dinosaur print found on Yorkshire's coast.
A record-breaking dinosaur print found on Yorkshire's coast may have been left by a predator stopping for a rest 166 million years ago, researchers believe.
The footprint is the largest left by a theropod - a group of bipedal dinosaurs which also included Tyrannosaurus Rex - found to date in Yorkshire. He added: "Features of the footprint may even suggest that this large predator was squatting down before standing up. It's fun to think this dinosaur might well have been strolling along a muddy coastal plain one lazy Sunday afternoon in the Jurassic."Local archaeologist Marie Wood stumbled across the print while collecting shellfish on the shore in April 2021. She said she "couldn't believe" what she was looking at.
It later emerged a local fossil collector, Rob Taylor, had also spotted the print five months earlier when the track was not yet fully exposed.The print was discovered by archaeologist Marie Woods while she was out collecting shellfish
