Ancient Dinosaur Footprints Discovered at Chinese Restaurant.

Fossilized footprints of long-necked sauropod dinosaurs, estimated to be around 10 meters long, have been discovered in the outdoor courtyard of a restaurant in Sichuan Province, China. The footprints were observed in the 1950s but were covered over and went unnoticed until a curious diner pointed them out last year. The footprints provide invaluable information about the types of dinosaurs that lived in the area, as the region has no skeletal record of dinosaurs. The discovery highlights the importance of everyday people making valuable scientific discoveries.
