"For something of this scale to have been preserved for so long, giving us a snapshot of what tropical Oxfordshire looked like 166 million years ago - when these animals were just going about their day - it's pretty special," said Kirsty Edgar, a professor of micropaleontology at Birmingham University in England who helped lead the excavation.
"They give us a glimpse into the life of the dinosaur, what it was actually doing," Edgar said, highlighting the importance of footprints as a source of information about dinosaur behavior and interactions.
