The most intriguing feature of our footprint is a long portion preserved at the back of the foot, which is an impression of what we call the metapodium, the presence of this might suggest our large meat-eater was squatting down in the mud, before standing up and walking away. It’s fun to think this dinosaur might well have been strolling along a muddy coastal plain one lazy Sunday afternoon in the Jurassic.

The east coast of Yorkshire is known as the Dinosaur Coast for very good reasons, although these different types do not necessarily represent the same number of different dinosaurs, they do indicate a diverse ecosystem of animals including both carnivores and herbivores that roamed the Jurassic coastal plain and (river) complex some 160-175 million years ago. The prints also allow us to interpret their behaviour. Thus, we have records of walking, running and swimming dinosaurs.

We know this dinosaur is (was born) 200 million years ago, to within half a million years or so, the rocks down here we've been studying for quite a long time now and we can do direct comparisons with the ages of rocks in Austria, which is where the transition between the Triassic and the Jurassic boundaries is precisely located.

What I like about films like Jurassic World and Hunger Games is there’s a draw to be in a place that’s not just Hawaii, i think it does a lot for Hawaii to have lots of different facets shown, not just the beach. Not just a palm tree here and there. It’s nice for people to know how much is really here.

Although we have found dense internal structures that we have interpreted as nuclei in our cells, and the cells we found appear to preserve original components of blood, there is no evidence of any organelles or DNA within the nuclei, but even if one was to find some fragments of DNA, we would not be able to reconstruct a dinosaur 'Jurassic Park-style' because we would need the complete genome to figure out where the holes in the DNA are.
