2007/10/11 Roa Zubia, Guillermo - Elhuyar Zientzia

British paleontologist Phil Manning discovered the footprint of a dinosaur in Montana, USA. For the paleontologist there are many reasons to think that the footprint is of a tyrannosaurus. On the one hand, the appearance of the footprint, 76 centimeters in length and three fingers. On the other hand, the age of the geological environment, dating back to 65 million years, last of the dinosaurs, tyrannosaurus. It may also be the imprint of another species, that of Nanotyrannus, but by its size, scientists believe that there is more probablity to be the trace of tyrannosaurus.
