Description: NEOVENATOR Possibly the UK's biggest killer dinosaur. It once roamed the areas of Southern England around 120 million years ago, preying on the herds of Iguanodon and also, I would imagine, the numerous long necked sauropods that were around at this time. It is related to the T-Rex busting Carcharodontosaurus. FOSSILS Early Ancient Amphibian Tracks GENUINE FOSSIL Batrachichnus Location: Plainville, Massachusetts, USA. Size: There are two footprints here on this rock slab (both next to each other) - the footprints themselves measure aprox. 1.5 cm wide and the rock matrix measuring 12.5 cm x 4.5 cm x 3.5 cm deep. I'm afraid the pictures don't do this any justice as you need to tilt the footprints to see all the detail in full 3d. But what an amazing fossil! Geological Age: Upper Carboniferous - around 315 million years ago – (Pennslyvanian - Coal Age) DETAIL: Batrachichnus plainvillensis – (Woodworth).These creatures were a type of salamander amphibian. They were first identified in 1900 and are highly sort after as they represent some of the earliest vertebrate tracks recorded in our planets history. These were fossils 100 million years before the dinosaurs! They are real museum pieces and deserve a special place in your collection. The trace of a single footstep made in a split second has been preserved for over 315 million years. Amazing!
