Dinosaur tracks - Trackway of an Apatosaur (Brontosaur) exposed on a slab of rock.
Morrison Formation, Upper Jurassic.
This photo shows a rare occurence of footprints of both rear foot (large prints) and front foot (small prints). Usually the small front foot prints do not show, as if the animals walked by putting their rear foot over the spot where the front one had been.
