A set of fossilised footprints discovered two years ago 320 kilometres north
of Tokyo may have been left by a new species of dinosaur, say Japanese
palaeontologists. When the prints were found, researchers thought they had been
left by birds. But according to Masaaki Matsukawa of Tokyo Gakugei University,
the toes were too thick and close together for a bird. Matsukawa thinks they
were left by a small herbivorous dinosaur about 1.2 metres tall that walked on
two legs.
