Dinosaur footprints found near La Plagne, Savoie
By Craig McGinty on Oct 7, 2009 in Current Affairs.
FOSSIL hunters have found what is believed to be some of the largest ever dinosaur footprints in the Jura Mountains of eastern France.
The footprints are believed to be around 150 million years old, are about 1.5m wide and were made by a large herbivore weighing around 30 tonnes.
You can take a look over the official French language press release announcing the discovery from the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, as well as browse a collection of images of the footprints themselves.
