The three toed, bipedal (two legged) dinosaurs that made these tracks lived in the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic times. The conditions in the region where these tracks were found were seldom right for preserving the dinosaur bones so little evidence exists to name the species of dinosaur. The tracks themselves were named but their names refer only to the tracks and not the dinosaur that left them.The tracks were excavated from a layered deposit of mixed sand and clay. The footprints dried and hardened in the sun, later to be filled with new deposits of clay and sand. Layer upon layer of dinosaur footprints were preserved in this fashion. Both 'positive' foot impressions and 'negative' natural casts of these impressions were found as single prints and multiple trackways. |
