110 million years old footprints of dinosaurs found
Scientists have found footprints of at least six species of dinosaurs in a remote area of Kent, England. These footprints are thought to be approximately 110 million years old.
The proximity of the coast has made it easier to find footprints due to storms and heavy rains, said David Martil, a professor at the University of Portsmouth.
He told ANI that they may have been the last species to be wiped off the face of the earth. And there is evidence of the existence of various species of dinosaurs in the south of England 110 million years ago, as evidenced by the footprints of various species.
Another member of the research team, Philip Hadland, collection and engagement curator at the Hastings Museum, said the dinosaur's footprints were close to the size of a giant elephant's foot. The largest footprint is 85 cm long and 60 cm wide, probably from a dinosaur near the Iguanodon species. Iguanodon dinosaurs were herbivores and could grow up to 10 meters in length. They walked on two legs, sometimes even on four legs.
The scientist also expressed hope that fossils with many more footprints could be discovered if the whole area is searched.
